ok, checked my stats - look quite similar to AK's... can you say "dejavu"?
Coulden't resist that pun

So far, in tour 13:

Less than 2 engagements:
C.202 (2)
190A5 (2)

5 or less (excluding above):
109F4 (3)
109G2 (3)
47D30 (3)
47D25 (4)
Tiffy (4)
SpitV (5)

10 or less (excluding above):
109G6 (7)
C.205 (7)
P38 (7)
109G10 (8)
LA5FN (8)
A6M5B (9)

42 or less (exlcuding above):
F4U-D (15)
Seafire (19)
SpitIX (20)
F4U-C (35)
N1K2 (42)

Sidenote: I don't want the F4U-1C or the N1K2 to be perked because:
a) of the 35 encounters vs F4U-1C I had 26 kills vs 9 deaths
b) of the 42 encounters vs N1K2 I had 30 kills vs 12 deaths

If you perk those planes I'll never be able to rack up those kills

I'm seeing pretty much everything, though the most common are 51s, F4Us, Spitfires, or N1K2s.

I usually fly the La-5FN, myself. If I'm a lone wolf, or radar's down, or our numbers are down, I might go for the Yak-9U, instead though. Of course, once the La-7 comes, I won't need to fly any other fighter at all.

Top of the list for me is the N1k2. Then Chog's, TBM-3's and Spits (inc sea) and a few 51's, 109G-10's and Ju88's. I can’t remember the last time I saw a C202 or a 109 that wasn’t a G-10

It’s often hard to find a fight weeknight Aussie time. People tend to pick something snappy when are likely to be alone so there is not much variety.

I tried out the Chog at the start of the tour and soon gave it away after a few easy kills (thanks but no thanks), rest of my time is spent back in my usual La5.
