Default Why did they sandbag the P51?

First, let me say the game is a blast, and I'm having very much fun with it!! But, why is the P-51 so bad? This was one of the most dominant fighters of the second world war.

When I play (realistic) M.P. I am being OUTRUN by everything..... Spits, Hurri's, 109's... ect. I dont mean just by a few feet a sec, but huge lengths, and I can't do a full loop at WEP without a stall indicator??? This plane should have power to spare! I also set my hud to display MPH and i'm stressed to reach 300. No friggin way, the top speed of P-51 was around 500+. (I know altitude is a factor, but 400 at 5000 ft should be no prob.)

I handles terrible, bassically unflyable at best, no turning fights at all, (I think a He 111 could out turn this thing in the game...) I realize it was not a turning fighter, but I can't use my speed or my power reserves to boom n zoom, as everything can out run it.

Some of the other threads say that the La5 flight model is a bit off, wondering if this could be the case. I have tried the P51-b aswell and same results, turns "slightly better" but still no power....

Please fix this.

Also the kills in M.P. does anyone know if they will be addressed?? I fill them full of lead only to watch them spin to the earth, (because I shot half their wing off) and then they crash, no kill???

Thanks, and enjoy the game.
