Don't let the performance of the Hellcat in Il2 fool you.
Also, Il2 does'nt (yet) have a late war version of the Corsair.
it is not the plane that makes the pilot , it is the pilot that makes the plane.... these are words well remembered. Just because a plane is better in area's does not mean that the pilot can't be out flown :wink:
and the sim is missing many japanese planes, thank god for the modelers that are working on these projects
