I'm thinkin of strappin on a P40 for the fun.

It'll be ugly, but them poor bastages that die before the guns will bring a smile.
I pulled the plug last August, Nopoop. I'd come back if the gameplay improved and/or TOD was introduced and/or big maps were up for serious amounts of time, or we had an RPS so that the early war planes could get a fair shake.

At least the P40 made a bigger impact on my game than the 109E. I was killed by a P40 THREE times in total. But I never died to the 109E. Not one single time.

There is a profound joy in taking up slow, underarmed or otherwise crappy planes.

For those who have had the time to do it all, it doesn't quite cut it to take the trusty plane up and land a few.

These people know that anyone can get a fair kill message in such planes without even pulling their thumb out of their behinds.

No, these guys need something different, something fun.

It's even more satisfying when you're a crappy pilot, like me. ;) The main satisfaction comes from watching your critics twist and bend what they believe to be the dictionary definition of a fight. :lol  I once got into the top 100 by "not fighting".

I started flying the Hurricane because of its short clip, only 91 rpg.
I figured if I flew a plane with very little ammo it would force me to become a better shot. I think it's working :D

Overall though, the Hurricane is just fun to fly. I cant outrun any other fighters, even some bombers can run me down :rofl

It's especially fun to beat overwhelming odds in an early war plane. Last night I beat a 4 - 1 ( 2 La-7's, Spit9, 109), best I have done is a 5 - 1, P-38, Hurricane, La-7, SpitV, 109.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Well..  Ive flown it a few times,  and the one thing i can tell you, is that it doesnt stand a chance against some of the LW planes ive fought against.  Amongst other differences,  no more "lazer" guns is obvious.  

The good thing is that the same maneuvers that were pulled off in AH1 can be pulled off in AH2,  the only thing is that sometimes i hesitate thinking it wont work in this version..  Even tho it really does ;)   Stall fighting seems to be the same,  too slow = death..  

Just a few key observations..
