February 20, 20233 yr Been getting into a bit of P51 flying of late. And what a learning experience it's been 🙂 The A2A P51 Civ might have nicer instruments than the Mil version, but it certainly is a beast to fly and very unforgiving where most of my flights have been ending up in the maintenance hanger as complete overhauls. Speaking of being a beast to fly, does anyone have any hints on stall recovery ? Most of the time I seem to end up in a unrecoverable flat spin,not all but most... Glamorous Gal, some mighty fine paintwork.  Moonbeam McSwine, there are a number of Moonbeam repaints, this is one I found where the cockpit has also included a degree of repainting.  The cockpit, differences include more black and the white handle on the right, normally red.  Lining up for landing. A heavy landing where the gear collapsed and yet another raise on jacks and full overhaul.  After a taking a break I migrated the FSX-SE P51 racer series, nowhere near as hard to fly as the A2A variety.  Cheers Ryzen 5800X clocked to 4.7 Ghz (SMT off), 32 GB ram, Samsung 1 x 1 TB NVMe 970, 2 x 1 TB SSD 850 Pro raided, Asus Tuf 3080Ti P3D 4.5.14, Orbx Global, Vector and more, lotsa planes too.

February 21, 20233 yr Cool shots! Â I had this in P3D and it was the absolutely most difficult plane to fly. Jack Sawyer
February 22, 20233 yr Author Thanks @Jack_Sawyer and @andy1252 I found some info on stall recovery in a post on A2A and in the crash report of an actual P51 that had stalled @ ~7,700 feet and did not recover. It seems a lot of height is needed to recover - up to 9,000~10,000 feet Cheers A final Moonbeam Ryzen 5800X clocked to 4.7 Ghz (SMT off), 32 GB ram, Samsung 1 x 1 TB NVMe 970, 2 x 1 TB SSD 850 Pro raided, Asus Tuf 3080Ti P3D 4.5.14, Orbx Global, Vector and more, lotsa planes too.
