    Good luck with the lighting! I like the paint job (I do find the invasion stripes a bit weird, bit you have a carrot on the nose, so who am I to judge? ). Seeing that you are new to the P-38, I've got a few suggestions. First, use the airbrakes(and flaps if needed), they really help with maneuverability, I always deploy them in a dogfight (the ab). They're also really great when you're in a dive. I'd recommend diving and climbing in a pinch perhaps, though with luck you won't need to. Also, remember youve got a mirror, that way you don't have to turn your head to check your 6 (I do it too though, so can't blame you). Last but not least, a fun fact: the reason why the P-38 is so stable is the engines rotate towards eachother, so the torque from one gets counteracted by the other. Hope this helps! Happy hunting!

    Awesome thanks! I completely forgot they had air brakes. I'll be sure to take advantage of them!

    There are no "air brakes". It has dive recovery flaps, which will give it a 5° or so pitch up when used outside of the normal use. They're not intended to slow the plane at all, they simply allow the plane to recover from a compressibility dive.

    Good content, appreciate the hard work you out in. Not gonna lie. The labels kinda killed it for me. Is there a reason or you just not confident without them yet? Comes off like an ignorant, snarky comment, but i promise you. That's not the intention. I used to think i had to do the same, then i got TackIR. Practiced and LOVE reading everything myself. I will NEVER get fly for the U.S. Navy/Airforce. This is the next best. Good luck and Good times brotha

    Thanks for the comment, if you check out some of my later series, I no longer use the indicators. It boiled down to me still learning the game, yeah. But I agree, it's much better without them.
