US prop teams, P51s, can someone explain their mentality

Really? Maybe you are not the only one. :-D

Best example for my opinion.
If you see everything you face as an obstacle, this is what you get.
If you see it as a chance to learn something, you will have a positive process AND more fun ingame.

If the tiktok kiddy only want to fly the super cool Ghost of Kiev plane to tell all his friends he did it…Hey, easy money for GJN and a new hater of the game. Maybe not the right game for those.

Sure it has.
Positioning
Timing
Guessing energy state of the enemy
Knowing which tactic works in a specific scenario
Knowing several tactics.
And many more.

You have to adapt from plane to plane anyway, so from prop to jet it’s only one more step, sure a bigger one, but only a step.

It’s way easier to learn/practice these things in prop battles, because they are slower and you have time to think. In toptier battles there is no time to think about.

Garbage climb rate.
