Even though the flight dynamics aren't 'perfect' the visual model is very nice imo


If you want more accurate (in terms of the staock fighter config for a P-51D) flight dynamics go to www.avhistory.org or www.mudpond.us and download the 1% flight model workbook --> OR one of the 1% P-51D's for CFS2 etc. The "default" data is for a P-51D-25 and all you have to do is correct the contact points and the weight & balance configurations to suit the Reno package.
If you are not sure what i'm on about, PM me heer & i'll email it to you.

I've been threatening to learn how to make planes for a while now and when I do, the first one is going to be a Mustang.  Hopefully one that blows everythign that came before away... ::) (yeah, right)

There are some people who don't like the Reno Package because the Flight dynamics aren't perfect. This is a perfect solution to an excellent aircraft model 8)

P.s. Avhistory was one of my favorite warbird sites ;)

I said was because I've upgraded to FS2004, and now not all of my favorite Avhistory aircrafts are compatible ;)

And second, ask Ozzy & Rollerball why they don't like the Reno package ;)

I have to take issue with you here Tempest. I understand the characteristic "Mustang moan" is caused by the airflow through the radiator air scoop. You can always tell when the rear exit flap is adjusted correctly at full chat.

I would not dare argue with you Hagar pal. ;) I'm only going on what some guy at Duxford once told me whilst watching a Mustang performing.
