      Thanks for your enthusiastic support of our throttle. A lot of volunteers in our community contributed to its development so its great to see it being appreciated and recommended.

    @Wolfpack345 I will just pay my respect to your editing and storytelling skills, once again. Even though not much happened, your footage and editing of the same, makes for yet another very entertaining and immersive video. This acknowledgement goes for all other of your content. You gotta love it. Thank you!

    If I remember correctly from the A2A P-51 in flight sim, the P-51 returns fuel to the left wing tank and that’s typically the first to pull fuel from so that the unused fuel from the other tanks can refill the left wing tank over time

    • @reubensandwich9249
      @reubensandwich9249 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's interesting. I always thought the one they pulled first was the tank behind the pilot because it messed with the center of gravity.

    • @TV1Bomber
      @TV1Bomber 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      Both correct. If the left wing is full to brim, must use that first to make space for return fuel. Then switch to rear tank to remove the weight for centre of gravity aiming at about 25. This is saved afterward as reserve fuel. An easy way is to taxi, takeoff and form up using left, then switch to rear for transiting. Thereafter it’s just balancing fuel weight left & right.

    I've been combat flight simming since the late 80s and this is astounding; I haven't done much the last 7 years due to a little brain whoopsie in '17 when I had a stroke in the shower. I did a fair bit of 3rd party stuff at one time for Il2FB/1946 and I need to get RoF back up and running but I'm thinking my sim rig from '20 just won't cut it any more of I want to ex[experience what I just watched.

      My newest PC components are 4 years old, CPU/Ram/motherboard is all over 10 years old now, and I'm running everything at full blast, your rig over-all outdoes mine and should be more than sufficient.
      I'd sooner look into more advanced peripherals like FFB stick and the like.

    Nice one WP Sir!! It's me, yer old Crew Chief... I see that the 'art of landing' is still a little strange to you, even with your new throttle quadrant! Me 'n' the old guys were watching with some slight amusement seeing that ol' familiar bounce on touchdown. Seems no damage was done though so we'll let you off...
    Over and out.🙂

    There's a series thats come out recently called "Master's of the Air". A series about the Bloody 100th Bomb Group based out of Thorpe Abbotts, England. Its a beautifully done series following Buck Clevans, Bucky Eagan, Rosie Rosenthal, and Harry Crosby. Showing the brutality the bomber crews of the Bloody 100th faced bombing Axis targets in Occupied Europe. Is well worth the watch, you'd enjoy the history Wolfpack! Love the P-51 Series! Happy to also see a Silent Hunter Series going on aswell, miss the days of your Type IX Career! Keep up the good work! ❤

    Great video, I love your cinematics! When I built the campaign and read the combat reports and squadron records about this mission I was in a dilemma. Basically, they saw no combat. Should I build the mission as it happened and risk being 'boring' or should I spice it up a little? I decided to stick to the historical records, after all that's the biggest added value of these historical campaigns: they recreate events exactly the way they happened. Easy or hard, exciting or boring.

    I'm binge watching and very much enjoying your many campaigns. It's great being able to add one of your playlists to my TH-cam library instead of adding single videos all jumbled in a file I create. Is there a minimum amount of videos needed to create a playlist or do you just create playlists whenever you think of it? { HINT, nudge nudge, wink wink)

    Why you open the canopy? Wartime manual states that canopy must be closed and locked during both takeoff AND landing.

    • @Wolfpack345
      @Wolfpack345  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It was common practice to open on landing.

    • @joevalicenti2722
      @joevalicenti2722 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Per the P-51 flight manual [www.wwiiaircraftperformance.org/mustang/P-51D-manual-5april44.pdf] it is simply not done. The canopy is closed for takeoff and not opened again until the aircraft is stopped and shut down with all post flight procedures completed. I have never seen pictures of p51's landing with open canopy either period or modern airshows. Do you?@@Wolfpack345

    • @joevalicenti2722
      @joevalicenti2722 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I could find no documentation of this. Not a single picture or any mention of this in writing. I looked at many period photos of P-51's landing and contemporary video of P-51 landings and each and all showed canopy closed during landing. The only photo I could find of a P-51 landing with canopy open was the lone CARRIER trial landings done by a tail-hook modified P-51. I do agree that CARRIER landings were done with canopy open but not airstrip landings. What documentation do you have?@@Wolfpack345

    • @fernandomarques5166
      @fernandomarques5166 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Contrails, basically the air is so cold up there at high altitude that the water vapor in plane's exhaust instantly condenses and becomes a small linear cloud
      Its 100% normal for planes at high altitude, you can often spot civilian airliners from the ground by their contrails if the conditions are right

      @Wolfpack345  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Flak is radar guided

    • @joevalicenti2722
      @joevalicenti2722 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not in WWII. Wikipedia has a good explanation: "The method of operation during the day was for radar to direct the flak's optical fire control towards the target. Once this was acquired, the flak was controlled by the optical equipment to complete the engagement. During the night, the radar would be used to indicate the target to the search light crews." Radar gave am approximate location but the rest was a manual operation.
