Ah my Big blue Bus I love the P47 its seems more stable the p51 . One of the best CTA birds It lands like a dream and Brakes well turns well and Undercarige is strong . Plus those 8 50's tear up other planes in a big hurry.
best 9 bucks ive spent on PSN

I had the misfortune of taking part in CTA on Saturday. It was P47 vs 152s in realistic mode. The P47s wiped the floor with us. Everyone on the 152 team agreed it's a real dog. I only flew it once before that in a race. It's pretty nippy but has turning circle of a supertanker. In that CTA I went into a diving strafe and pulled up well in advance but still plowed into the deck. Armament is seriously underpowered too.
It beggars belief the devs stuck this in the game over say a typhoon or mosquito

so something to take out for a joy ride when no one is online & just for the heck of it, huh?

I find the 152 and the 190 "dora" about the same they both should be fantasticly nimble but sadly they both seem to have the same wingloading issue. 190 is a bit more stable In my opion

That's it exactly Bobby. It's like a drag racer if you get it down low on the rivers. Just watch out for that wingspan under the bridges!
