That’s the legend but what happens when it shows up in a flight sim? Mustangs in a flight sim A P-51 fights a FW190 near Normandy in IL-2: 1946. 50cal machine guns and a performance and agility level that could match the best that the Axis had to offer. The P-51 could do all of that long range flying and still bring with it six.

It wasn’t, however, until it was paired with the Rolls Royce Merlin engine that the aircraft developed its full reputation.Īble to fly from Britain to Berlin and back, the P-51B, C and D made a significant impact on the air war over Europe. Designed by North American in 1940 as an alternative to a request for added P-40 production by the British, the P-51 used a lot of advanced aerodynamics to backup an otherwise conventional WWII fighter design.
If you’re a aviation fan of any stripe you probably know the story about the Mustang. Let’s have a look at that and if there’s anything that 1CGS can do differently with their representation of the P-51D.
Its impossible not to be pulled in by every word written about the aircraft The trouble is, every time a Mustang has appeared in a flight sim, virtual pilots seem to be disappointed with it. The Mustang is such an aircraft that has built up and incredible story about it and the pilots who flew it. The trouble with bringing a storied aircraft into a flight sim is that it has to try and live up to the reputation that it made for itself.
