lmao!!! I can almost see you working those levers.

Nice post Lolsav, you've summed everything up perfectly, and I'm glad you included the G.50, as its a special breed and really nice to fly if you have the knowledge. I heard someone calling it the devils plane, but its far from it really.

I think there are people that just want to hit 'I' and be launched into orbit without having to mess with anything else, however with the G.50 after take-off you need to trim the rudder and ailerons because is has a tendency to drop a wing. (can't remember which side).

Once I'm out over the channel and the plane is configured, I can go and make a cup of tea and when I get back, its still chugging along the way I left it and pretty quickly at 400kmph.

Its a sturdy plane too, I've managed to get it back to France many times as a flying wreck! Once I was being chased by a Spit & Hurricane after ripping up the field at Littlestone, I flew alittle too close to the radar tower, and tore half of the wing off!
I re trimmed it and got it flying level again, all the way back home, half of the way a chasing Spitfire wasted his ammo trying to take me out .

Of-course when the enemy see a G.50 performing an airshow over Hawkinge, you can tell they are thinking "Juicy Target!", until they see how she can really move!

This should be a sticky. It's quick, informative, and RIGHT on the point!
