Good thread! I hope the "Perk the LA7" crowd don't read this. They may find the LA7 is not the Boogyman

One might not have the best chance at surviving but I'll tell you what, in a large furball you bet yer bottom my view hat is gettin hot from the friction so ya can't say there is no SA involved. One might not be able to track and anticipate all targets, and those that don't probably prioritize the list to the nearest/fastest bandits.

sorry folks.....I'm gettin slightly off topic here.....back to your regularly scheduled thread.

oh and Cav..... -Whack-a-mole-

All its true. I thought you were one of those guys that claim their superior ACM and SA can get them in and out a furbal alive. Sure good SA will keep you alive longer and once in a while you will get out of it with 10 kills. For the most part though, there is only so mach you can track. Everyone is different but every one has their limit.

Didn't Goring berate his pilots for not taking control of the English sky's? Then he said, "enuff with the scolding, how can I help you"? His pilots responded, "give us a squadron of Spitfires".

Sounds like the Germans didn't like em either

That's usually what happens when you read something and then remember only the part you personally like. The three people in that conversation was Moelders, Goering, and Galland. None of them said any of that.

All u dummy's stop doing the 190 vulch and run and similar offenses and I will never fly a la7 again..that being said i look forward to a long career of chasing down the aforementioned said offenders

>>but it seems the LA7 pilots as a whole are getting a lot better.

...I think what you're seeing is the better pilots turning away from their regular rides more often and resorting to flying the lalas themselves due to frustration.
