Do I suck at this sim.
I'm no stranger to flight sims or dog fighting but I'm ready to put my foot through my nice LCD monitor (cost to much to replace though).
Insert your favorite cuss word here *....* Just venting I guess....
BTW, does the P-51 really fly that bad? If you pull it just past that point, in a corner, it freaks out like someone cut all the control cables. It's hard to believe that we (the Americans) built a plane so bad (and I really like the looks of it too).
This sim gets me angry enough to get really good at it and then take it off my hard drive in revenge.
Sorry Segwin, had to make sure I didnt blow a gasket there. To help you out and get you flying better, try these two links:
The Nuggets Guide:

and when you decide to head online to face real humans, The Newbie's Guide to IL2 Online Dogfighting:

This will help get you started on the steep learning curve.

If you are flying it to that point in the corner, you are not flying the P-51 correctly. It is not best flown tightly chasing other planes around in circles.. What other people have said about the Nuggets guide and Boom and Zoom tecniques, it is a great fighter plane in this game one of the best but it is an energy plane not a turn on the dime kind of one.
Certainly, it is not a beginners plane, I would reccomend something like the Hurricane, P-40, Zero, La-5, Yak or the BF-109 F4. If you wish to get into furballs and also, not have the plane "flip out" on you.
