the snap caused by the rudder? thats usually experienced when you are new to the aircraft, like many newbies, they try a low speed rapid tight turn and the plane just goes weeeeee SPLAT!!! never happens to me any more. thats why i like it, can get an idea of the skill of an opposing mustang if he flips out.

These snap roll complaints on various aircraft baffle me. I do have 6+ years experience with this sim so perhaps thats why I do not experience such things.

Ah, i see. But then with the term aerial rockets he could have meant any kind of rocket.
But i am sure he meant HVARs, and i mean HVARs, not just any rocket you could hang under a plane.
So if he meant any rocket, he could just have said aerial rocket, but in this case what we want is HVARs for the P-51. You know, those things the F4U had.
I think the term High Velocity Aircraft Rocket is a bit misleading, since there are more rockets with a high speed that are used on aircraft, but in this case it is really the name of a specific rocket.
I hope that clarifies what i meant.

I would like to see rockets for the Mustang also. I think you would have to make a new variant
for the Hvars though because they were not installed on Mustangs untill the P-51D25 models.

Any movement on this?

Also.. the snap roll on the Mustang is actually pretty accurate.... Each of the Tuskegee Airmen I have spoken to (I am a member of the East Coast Chapter.. so I have spoken to a few on Mustangs, P-39s & P-40s as well..) and Bud Anderson as well.. all said that the Mustang they flew in combat was a great plane to fly and to a man they loved it... but you had no room to get your head up your butt... it was a great plane but it was unforgiving in that if you pushed it beyond it's known limits... and everyone knew about the center tank and the propensity to snap roll... it could bite you in the butt and depending on how high you were and what your situation was... as in defensive offensive or just fling.... you could wind up having a very bad day....
