Squire, I think Lowe had a good point. Would it kill the CM staff to try it for one week?
I flew Axis a lot too, and I got burned out real fast only flying 109s and 190s against the endless barage of spits and hurris. When the 202s and 205s were brought out, once every blue moon, I flew 'em. I tried the Ta 152 and Me 163 when I could. The Me 262 was always perked beyond what I had, so I couldn't fly it even if I wanted to. And when FinnRuss came up, well- you all know where I was then, but that's another story.
I know I wasn't the best pilot in the lot, heck- I still cheer if I get the darn plane landed without planting the nose in the dirt, so a lot of times my being shot down was my own fault- most of the time, really. But when you look back and have 5 planes on your 6 and they're all different.. it makes it incredibly difficult to get out of that alive because no matter what you do, one of their 5 planes can do it better.
It's a reasonable suggestion, in my mind, to drop the number of allied fighters once. See how it works, see what people think. If its been done before, Fine. But if it hasn't, where's the harm in trying? It can't be anyworse than some of the set-ups we've seen in the past, but it could be a lot better.
And, I agree with Diable- Arlo, you are definately slipping if anyone in here says your being logical.
