SPITFIRE!

(serious post)

For me a dweeb plane is the one that enforces the dweebish moves over the wise ones.

For example, a F4U1-C is a plane that tempts the rider to do a HO instead of an E-conservative move, SpitfireIX is a plane that tempts the rider to do turnfighting on it instead of E-fighting (where it excells).

THose are, for me, the Dweeb planes. Planes that favour (and reward) dweebish actions over wise ones.

To continue with RAM's theme of planes that tempt one into dweebish moves.....The 190A5 for its cross-controlling fish-flopping manuever.  Some call it roll-rate induced warp.

And the 190 forces the pilot to warp roll to get outta trouble, hehe. You see Funk's point Ram?

I have to say this again, true as it is, I may have to go to TA and film someone doing that, because I NEVER SAW THE SO-CALLED WARP ROLL (and noone has accused me of it).

I see regularly C205s jumping around but that never makes me impossible to kill them.

Please someone can go to TA with me and show what is a warp roll? I?ll film it.

Hehe Funked..... no doubt.

But there aint no dweeb planes... just dweeb pilots. Pilots who make claims of this or that plane is a dweeb plane are especially dweebish. Pilots who make claims that someone flying in a dweeb plane just pulled a dweeb manuever are triply dweebish.  I wish y'all would just shaaaadup about this dweeb stuff  

I got my own criteria fer discerning a dweeb, and it mostly has to do with channel 1.

[hblair]

HeHe, Good one funked, point well made.

I, for one am past the point of yammering on about other guys rides. Fly whatever the hell ya wanna fly.

If you shoot my 109 down flying the most uber plane in Aces High, ya won't hear this 'ol boy squeaking about it.

Only dweebs call other pilots dweebs because of the plane they have chosen to fly.

Gotta agree with you 100% Nash.

You can fly any plane you want on any side.

If the F5U is so hot, why don't you fly it?  If the Spit is an Uber plane why not use it?

So far every plane seems to have some good and bad points, so why not fly the Uber planes if they are so good?  

You don't like H2H with an F4U then don't fly  in such a manner that you ever have to H2H one.  The choice to engage or not is yours alone.  

If the F4U is above you, I'd ask, why didn't you get alt before leaving a safe sector?  If you don't leave a safe sector until you have 30K of alt, you can pick your fight. If you leave with less don't whine if a F4U H2Hs you.

You fly low, you lose options,and you may die, but not because the other dude is a dweeb in a F4U or a G10, but because you set yourself up for the possibility of failure.

If you start a fight co-E or at a deficit-E situation, it is your fault.

AKFF, get a Fw190A8 and climb up to 20K. I will get a Me109G10 and go to 10K. Try to disengage.You'll see what happens.

Now stop saying nonsense, please. To climb a 100%fuel Fw190A to 30K will leave you with less than 50% fuel. I want to spend my time doing somethign else than sleeping over the keyboard.

Ram, man I wish there was a way to show voice inflection on this thing. I was poking fun at ya my friend.

It just gets old hearing about all this dweeb stuff. I went thru it in WB when it was the spitfire, the p38, the f6f, the 109 guns too weak, the 190 guns too strong, on & on & on.

Some people just gotta complain I guess. One guy, think his name was Tac, that just quit, constantly complained about something. At least while I was online. He may be a good guy and all but constantly saying the P38 is porked just simply gets on my nerves when I see guys like Citabria or AKSWulfe fly the thing like crazy.

F4U HO's. I, if memory serves, have never been HO'd by a Corsair. I get my ho's from spits, N1K's and P38's. I specifically hunt Corsairs so maybe I can learn a little from another Corsair driver (actually I am 4 & 7 AH lifetime against Torque & I am trying to improve on it   ) & simply don't recall an HO from one.

I don't know. I guess I just log on to AH to have fun & don't really care if I get killed or not by these "Dweeb" a/c. I spend enough of my time in the real world arguing with people about RL things as it is.
Have fun!

"AKFF, get a Fw190A8 and climb up to 20K. I will get a Me109G10 and go to 10K. Try to disengage. You'll see what happens."

Well first of all I seldom fly Nazi aircraft, second why not take a plane that has drop tanks? Third at 30K I can run back to my team mates if I don't want to engage. The AVG was famous for gettin out of Dodge when the fight wasn't favorable, and no one in thier right mind would call them a coward.

The choice to fly a 190 is yours, the choice to fly at whatever alt you like to fly is yours. But your choice of aircraft and alt may leave you no choice in wether to engage of not. If that happens don't holler Dweeb, get in a different plane and fly it smarter.

[Wardog]

Nash got it right..

Funkeds points being,there are no dweeb planes,just dweeb pilots.

I HO, kill chutes, sheep & TOWD on the runway.
Ergo, this make me a dweeb, not the planes i fly!

Dog out...

LOL...
First (following the argument in this thread):there is no nazi plane, but nazi pilots.

Second: because with DT you wont reach 30K, not in less tha 30 minutes.And I want the test to be one that can be run in less than one hour

Third: AVG could do it because they had Nates and Oscars under them. A G10 will catch you and open another hole in your butt.And on the "coward" thing, they were risking their real life, not a score.

 

The choice to fly a 190 is yours, the choice to fly at whatever alt you like to fly is yours. But your choice of aircraft and alt may leave you no choice in wether to engage of not. If that happens don't holler Dweeb, get in a different plane and fly it smarter.

Look, AKFF...happens that I fly the plane I want, not the one you think is right to avoid dweebs. Happens,too that if someone dives on me from 30K to headon me I'll call him DWEEB regardless what you say or think about dweebs or not dweebs. And I'll call dweeb the 1K shooters,too.

Because they are.
