P-51D DOGFIGHT TRAINING Many regard the P-51D Mustang as the finest fighter of World War II. The combined factors of its maneuverability, high altitude performance, and long range capabilities caused this aircraft to be loved by its pilots and the bomber crews they escorted, and dreaded by enemy pilots. Of the thousands of Luftwaffe aircraft lost during the war, P-51s destroyed 4,950 (nearly 49 percent). YOUR MISSION You begin this mission in prime firing position behind a pair of Bf 109s, but that opportunity won't last for long. Down the first pair quickly and you'll be in good shape when the pair of FW 190s arrives. During the dogfight, make use of the view keys on your keyboard to look around and keep track of the enemy planes. Using the high angle views, you'll be able to maintain visual contact with any aircraft you choose while maneuvering to gain firing position. Your P-51D has unlimited ammunition.
