    As someone who struggled with aim early on, this plane was a god send. You don’t have to land 200 rounds of 50 cal to get a kill. It was huge for a moral booster if your still learning the game.

    The cannon-stang was the first plane i played ARB with and the first plane i learnt how to energy trap someone... i still remember that moment, it was a twin prop heavy fighter can't remember the model but it was pulling up for me, i had recently boomed and now i was zooming. Spiralled above the guy as he tried to follow only to stall himself out and i cranked out a 180, got 45 degrees onto him and shot him from 900m out.

    but this one is Weird for a 50cal Guy , never seen Cannons on a plane which is Famous for it's Strong 50cals ...

    At 4:07 is probably the biggest example of why you are so good at the game. I'm pretty good at reading a match and deciding what to do to win, but in this case I probably would have gone to help my teammate and try to get the 2/3 kills on the group, and then hope to survive against the Spitfire somehow. But you made the right call to win the match by leaving your teammate and instead focus on the highest energy enemy before engaging the rest.

    P38E is also fun as it slaps planes out of the sky and I find it best performing at high altitude as it is an interceptor that literally just controls the top of the battle. Also it has the strongest flaps I have ever seen at its br. Highly recommend u revisit this hidden gem and this will probably help most people who don't know how play this plane properly.
