    This felt like CinemaScope, great editing. Also obvious the controls are a handful, even with hydraulic boost. I'd be wrung out after 20 minutes of close formation flying. Total skill and concentration.

    I'm impressed that an aircraft with a yoke was still an extremely capable dogfighter in WWII.

    • @Loebane
      @Loebane Місяць тому +2

      What makes a yoke a bad choice for dogfights?

    • @daneelolivaw4323
      @daneelolivaw4323 Місяць тому +12

      @@Loebane The point of a yoke is to increase the strength a pilot can apply to the control surfaces by facilitating two-handed piloting and, in some cases, increasing the lever length. If you need to do that, your aircraft probably wasn't going to be a very agile machine in the first place.
      And indeed the P38 wasn't. It wasn't a dogfighter like @zoesantana5700 writes, it preferred zoom-and-boom tactics, which rely less on maneuverability and more on power and energy conservation.

    To me, that bird will always be Lefty Gardner’s “White Lightnin’”. So great to see it still doing what it’s done for… well… my whole life (60 years). And this reminds me of an old video from the 80s with Lefty, although much better quality.

    The axis powers had some excellent fighter aircraft. But the US had so many different and excellent fighter aircraft. Mustang, Thunderbolt, Lightning, Corsair, Hellcat and I'd give honorable mention to the P-40 Warhawk for being rugged and used intelligently by the AVG in Burma.
