I say, let's apply a 10 perk requirement to the P-51D, Dora, La-7, 109G-10 and Tiffie. Then reset everyone's perks every tour and let's see what happens... It'll be a whole new world....


Oh my.  You think they are timid now!  Just think how timid these people would be, whoever they are, if they had their perks reset at the onset of each tour, once they got in their late war ride.  Move the bases closer together, make it so  the very early war rides never go below 50% fuel, then we'd have some furball fun!

Thats exactly what I did.  Another spit another kill. Hmmm, then I found myself in the tower.  If I knew it was him I would prob run, lol.  (for the people that did not get it, I am kidding)

Maybe the pilot name should be included in the icon ;)

Can some one explain to me what am I missing about the Tiffie the Dora and even the G10?  What is it that makes them so special that we need to perk them?  Especialy the Tiffie?

Why?  Perks reset at the end of the tour means you have nothing to lose by burning up some points once you grab them.

NO NO NO ... please don't do that. I already spend half my time flying/floundering around trying to look like a noob so as to entice them to take a run at me. There is this timidness running rampant in the MA as of late ... ;)

Ded .. wish I had some more ammo when you returned to second time. All I had was about 200+ .303s and couldn't take you out fast enough before the next guy blasted me. Back at the tower all FHs were down and there was no way I could return for some more good fights with you. Thanks for the fights we had tho.

GODO/MANDOBLE ...

The inital post in this thread started the discussion concerning perking the La-7. How silly of me to assume that that must have been your underlying  intent.

Now you switch over to "overuse" ... what in hells bells does all that altitude jibbersh have to do with overuse then ?

Seriusly though.  Was there someone else?  The last I saw before you hit the water you were in front of me d200 and I was firing.  Please don't tell me some else got you.  You will make me fly 100 feed high lookin for you for the rest of my AH life, lol

DOH ... my bad ... fights getting mixed together.

You are correct ... but it was those damn .303s. My life for a few cannon rounds .. hehehe.

I just started using my new CH setup (button setup is all new) last night, and when you slammed the breaks on ... you got me all flustered cause I was trying to pump every last bloddy .303 (all 200+ of 'em) into the same spot on your tail. Ergo, I collided with you and went into the drink hearing pings all the way down.

And yes it was someone else that got me (I'm lying. I want you to come look me up again ... real soon ... ;) )

lol, my ego feels a lot better now.  I was wondering why I only lost the radiator after all those pings on my tail  (radiator damage whine in disguise, lol)

I'll be looking but I learned my lesson.  No more turning in the la7 when I see a low spit, lol

Hint: If you see the Spit go vertical at the merge, after just being on the deck ... just keep on going, straight and fast ... if not, it might be safe to play in the water.

Thank you.  I thought that may be the answer.  Those are not easy planes to fly though  (thats why I fly spits and la7s).  We should not be perking based on speed only.

Everything is easy to fly when the goal is not to fight in it.

Thats true, but perks are not going to help.  Just one more reason to run
