Yeager was lucky though, under more ideal circumstances he wouldn't have stood a chance. Mustangs were impressive, though not quite as good as Corsairs. <br />I've flown 262s in flight simulations, a very stable aircraft with excellent performance and 4 30mm cannons. Bombers would dissolve in front of them.<br />My favorite prop aircraft in simulation was the Martin Baker 5. This was an amazing machine that outclassed everything both sides had, crushed at the prototype stage by the death of one of the principals and corporate politics. I routinely shot down Me 262s and Dornier 335s with mine.<br /><br /><br />LukiftianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
