I thought AH1 burn rate was 1.5 or thereabouts. Apart form that try flying a plane where you can't take DTs or its Dt's or ord but not both.
Actually I think Leayme has hit it on the head, for admitting you fly with the hoard. A newbie with around a month is saying that it is not as much fun as AH1.
In fact last night I have never seen so many LA7s, something that wouldn't happen with 25% fuel. Most of the time late last night early this a.m. was 90% 1943 and onwards planeset. Hurris, Spit 1 etc as fast becoming things you will usually only see in the SEA. At least in AH1 we had a more rounded planeset, but I put this all down to the fuel situation.
Hell even 75% on a P51 with 2x burn rate goes a long way, more than can be said say for a Tiffy etc.
Mugzee you are absolutely correct this was done to appease the anti land grabbers, to hell with everyone else.
Unfortunately the two methods of gameplay can't co-exist in the same arena/game.
All I would like is a statement from Hi-Tech, if this is going totally furball as it appears to be, I'm taking my money somewhere else.
