Pretty much a fighter guy, but AK's are more strategy/team oriented so doing more Jabo/buff stuff then before....

Dont care about score and dont RTB much overall. Tend to fly stuff in the ~40 ENY range (current love is the Ki-61)...

The ol "a mig on my 6 is better than no mig at all" fits me pretty well. Dont care what your in dont care where ya are...just want ya to be there...

Of course the "20 rooks on my 6" ISNT better than 2-3 or ya...but thats life in the MA sometimes:)

I go thru furball spurts but I'm not a "good" furballer...really like the good ol 1 on 1, 1 on 2, 1 on 3 better but of course is hard to find now.

are you a mad for it furballer?

I like smaller engagements. I live for the 1 on 1 or the perfect bouce. My F4U-1 vrs some dweeb in a NIK2 co-e co-alt is perfect.

are you a p-51 dive n' extend, ultimate realism type?

Only when doing base defense against heavy numbers. You are allowed to "dweeb" it up against the masses.

are you an avid bomber?
Almost never

are you a GV nut?
Sometimes, I like it but I don't have the patience.

do you care if you die?
Yes

does score matter to you?

Only the K/D and type of A/C killed vrs my ride. I like to know what is killing me so I can kill it first.

maybe if you flew planes a bit you might get better.

a good one to start on is the spit mkV.

try it, you might like it :p

oh... think i should reply about how i fly....

the leather chaff's a little bit after a while of flying, but i live with it. when i "die" i toss lighter fluid on my chair and lite it. the realism of actual physical harm is so immersive. i also keep a 5 gallon bucket of water next to me so if i ditch in the ocean. just throw my head under for a few minutes usually makes me feel like im drowning in my plane.

my landloard is getting a little upset at the calls from those below me. seems the screams, and the water seeping through the floor are not welcome. relaxed realism jerks have to ruin the fun for everyone.

im still working on the smoke filled, slowly pass out to fumes, cockpit, and i think it can be solved with a few more bolws of beans... i will be testing that theroy this week, so if you see a plane just flop over and fall to the deck, it's just me.

I love flying in furballs.

Taking on a buff formation and killing all three buffs with little or no damage to myself.

Roping spits with a Hurricane :rofl

Even better, roping La-7's with a Hurricane :rofl :rofl

When an enemy Carrier pulls up off shore.....those fights ROCK!!

Sometimes I will repeatedly up panzers just to kill spawn campers. Killing the spawn campers brings loads of satisfaction :D

Score? The only score I care about is my gunnery score. When I pull the trigger I want someone to explode....NOW!!  :D

I live for a massive furball these days. Yanking and banking in the weeds or burining through  cherry picking. The only time you will see me running is when I am dragging a large flock or spits and lalas. Or when I get one guy locked on me and want to drag him aways from a bunch of buddys. If I get shot down I am not happy. Wether its from some uber pilot or some dweeb I hate to lose.
   About the only time you will see me in a gv is for base defence when FH are all down or the vultch is on too tight. Man I hate getting vultched. Or I will Gv troops some times when there isnt any good furballs to find. Allmost never find me in a tank cant see the point. You shoot some guy 10 times and nothing happens you see his turret turn around 1 shot boom your dead. Too frustrating and you know I hate to lose. Beside most the time you spawn to another base some spawn camping uber shot dweeb is there and you get poped before your engine is started.
  While I dont use bombers much still love to fly um. Its great to get 10 15 buff formations up and go whack a target. Love to pop them low level bombers too hope they NEVER get changed.
  Find me a good CV right off shore furball and I am real happy.

Speaking of which... did you know that you can spawn in a PT boat in the DA?  I think it pops up in one of the fighter hangars and then grounds itself there.  But you can still fire everything you've got at passersby.

One night I tested its effectiveness against a Tiger tank.  Unfortunately, the entire PT Boat arsenal didn't even take off a tread.

I heard those are easymode.  I do not wish others to see me as an easymode pilot.  What do real fighter pilots fly?

Dive in to the furball, turn and burn until I die......which generally happens quite quickly when I think about it :)

There is a certain satisfaction in getting the high alt B&Z guys to miss a million times too

I have no idea.

I haven't yet found my niche in this sim/game

I like flying planes.

I don't like GV's.

I don't like Buffs.

I don't like dieing.

I someday will find my way in this game and find one thing I can be fairly competant at.

I hear that the Spit V is a good plane to start out in. Although it is slow it has been said that it is a decent model to try out.

I stay away from anything German as I don't have the required leather outfits.

I don't fly much american Iron as I am incompetant to them. Also , chewing tobacco and spitting on the carpet tends to make my wife upset.

Japenese planes make me feel funny. Kind of like a serious craving for saki and a bonzai tree and waxing my car for some reason. Wax On Wax Off

Russian planes make me see Big Women with fat thighs hollering at me to bring more vodka.

Italian planes give me gas.

British planes seem more refined and elegant. They seem very , how do we put it , uppity. So flying one makes me feel good about me. I need that as I am terrible.

SO all in all this is what I do.

Furballs are for children whom are nothing more than gammers. Pure adreneline junkies who have NO SKILL. That is why I fly in them alot.
