Turn fighter = P-51D

B n Z = P-51D

Jabo = P-51D

Yeah, I'm a kind of single-minded type of guy

I fly so many planes that I can't say I have a favorite.
I usually pick a plane based on the situation: Quantity of enemy, time to climb, defensive/offensive, Attack/Fight, Escort...

For heavy Furballing at low alts close to home (No time to climb)I love the Spit V. If I have a half sector to climb and put some E in my pocket, then I'm loving the N1K2.

For B&Z I would have to say the D9 or P51-D, but I find the N1K2 to be rather effective here too.

Jabo: P47D-30 or P38 for the total load. I like the P38 for hitting buildings in non fighter areas, but I like the P47 for Hangars in fighter areas. P47 has much better Legs (SPEED) and a huge ammo load. 8x .50cal guns put a hurting on any plane.

It's an awesome thing to Vulch at 400 mph in a Jug!!!

TnB: La-7 (good turning and good speed and accel. if fight goes bad)

BnZ: I suck at BnZ, still learning other aspects of game

Jabo: F6F (Good loadout, and can fight with alot of planes once ordinace is dumped)

Well in AH I prefer:

TnB: I like the 109G6

I don't usually fly TnB and this is the only plane I am flying now that will do it

BnZ: I dunno, I don't BnZ

Now for energy flying I like the F4U because it does many things well; turn climb, spiral climb, dive etc.

Jabo: This is tough but, prolly the F4U again for the same reasons I listed above

But I do like other a/c for that job too eg. the P-47, and the P-51.
