A20s? who really runs from those?

Not meant as a shot at him :)

But he was going away very fast. He and Delirium were talking about it on 200.  As I also said he came back in but it was funny to see him on the move so fast away from the A20s.

Really the only problem I have with LA7's is all the dweebs that want to HO.. Every freakin time I try to engage an LA7 they come straight at me guns blazin.. Gimme a break people, thats the worst move in the ENTIRE book..

Other than that LA7's are fun targets and give good perks when I kill them.. I specifically hunt them all the time..

np - I misinterpreted the comment. Thing is I normally follow him in his suicide missions only to die very quickly while he manages to stay alive and land lots of kills :-)

I'm really surprised that you guys pretend that the lala is easy to kill. Like mars01 pointed out, I think you're basing it on who you've met flying the lala, and not the plane capabilities.

I'd like to see your arguments on "how easy the lala is to kill", if we could leave out the pilot factor and only discuss planes.

I don't think it makes sense to discuss plane capabilities if we're including the pilot factor. The skill span of the MA is too wide and adds a formidable "wild joker" factor.

I actually, am just getting used to the P51d with 4 .50's.  There's not much out there that can beat it...

You can kill 8 cons in a fight and rtb low ammo and fuel,,, and one of those turds will always follow you and catch up.



MonkeyMeat


well, that is why when i am rtb, and want to land kills, i bring enough fuel for a fight with this dweeb:)  why just the other day i was rtb in a jug, when a typhoon chased me down, and i added one more to my kills:)  not that planes are dweeby, just the pilots who fly them.

Beats me.  I've always considered the La7 as one of the easiest planes to fight against.

Depends more on how you fly than what you fly, once you get past a certain performance threshold.  

For example, if I flew a F4U-1, but I kept a hard deck of 15k and 300 mph, I wouldn't worry about La-7s.  Probably my biggest worry would be P-51s and P-47s.  

Anyone who flies low and fights a lot will see and be killed by La-7s more than just about any plane though (if you take all 3 Spits you probably see more "Spits", but thats the only example I can think of).

The only drawback of the Lala is the hordes of dweebs that fly it and make it an easy target.

My main ride is the Fw-190A8 so the Lala out-everythings me.

Solution: Fight only at your advantage and teamwork.

Now if I hear complaints from the Lala-drivers about the lack of good 1vs1. Step outta ya uberplane first - and welcome to reality!

Is that a solution to having fun, or staying alive?

I can think of a few snazzy ways of interpreting that "solution".
