Well, ignoring the fact that the AI can prove the magic bullet theory...

You take a plane like the P51D. It's bullet spread is all over the place, even at convergence. The spread is rediculous (And some people are pointing out that it should be half of what it is on the Il2 boards).

Now take a plane like the P40M. (Note that it was in russian service). It can outmaneuver many things it shouldn't be able to, it moves faster then it should be able to and the spread on the .50's is a little bit under what it should be.

Also take note that to down any russian plane in game you literally have to fly upside down, lean out of your cockpit and beat the other pilot with a big stick (Assuming he has his cockpit window open).

Well, Im on my days off, and feel sporty.

I call you full a ****.

And, Im saying I will gladly give you any of the Uber Planes. You take the P40, I'll take the Gladiator. Best of 5. You want a Russian plane that is over modelled, I'll take the 109-Z.

We will trade IP's, and get to it. I love this sim, play it 6 days out of the week, full real, engine managment, full cockpit. I'd even go no cockpit if you want. I actually love that in the p38 busting tanks because it looks like a History channel film.

I'd mostly like to fight you in a Zero verses that P40.

Months AH as a bet?

Will it work better in AH2 because of the mouse look?

You start to think something's up when a Spit 5 can easily run away from a P51 going full blast...

GtoRA2 (can't you get a simpler handle to type?)

you have mouselook in AH I think the command is F8 to make it happen. Somehow (probably because I'm so used to flying with hat view in AH) I find it easier to shoot down stuff in AH without Track IR.

One big difference between IL2 and AH is that IL2 has been built with track IR in mind, which means that you can re-centre your view by looking at the middle of the screen and pressing F12. In AH you have to re-centre your head
