Easy to do when you only have one aircraft and it's on a map that has been around since dinosaurs walked the planet. I guess it's too much to ask for a realistic perspective on this forum.

We all have our favorite plane.
Mine isn't chosen by how it performs in a video game.

I still dont get how popular this is, well maybe I do, this is a forum of WW2 aviation enthusiasts, but I dont get ED's philosophy in releasing it for the DCS game world? Good to hear about the DCS third party (ish) Mig 21 though, the Mig 21 could fit in to the DCS world, we had Mig 21's from somewhere excercising up here with our Tornado's not so long ago in real life.

As for me, I prefer quality and am thus more than happy to purchase the DCS Mustang when it's ready (I'm allergic to betas) and THEN wait for other period content / AC to materialize. And if they don't, well, at least I've got an accurately modelled Mustang in my hangar  YMMV of course, different strokes for different folks...

I'd love to see what this looks like while strafing rail engines? Does the DCS environment allow steam to be modelled out of the boilers?
Looks impressive but after studying the cockpit, it only looks about as detailed as the modded p-51's of the old IL2 so CloD has room to breath. Maybe in 2017 I'll be able to fly a P-51 in CloD

Thanks, Ace. I love wwII and flew warbirds for years back in the days. I was really looking forward to getting into clod but this patch doesn't really boost confidence. I hate to say this but this beta patch seems like a scam or a stall tactic to me. Anyway, if their next title is the opposite of this debacle then count me in. Also, I'm not really new here. I've been coming here on and off for the past months, but the yellow theme really messed with my mind and I just couldn't bring myself to register.

I'm not sure what else you're expecting from a D stang pit, from the pics I've seen it looks right on. ED is owned by The Fighter Collection a company that owns the largest fleet of real warbirds in EU. They rebuild these machine to get them airworthy and fly them at airshows. Clod should have room to breath since it's a dedicated wwII sim which DCS is not. Also, DCS P-51D is in beta.
