I am going to stick to the  V or the IIc , I really want to learn and to be honest, flying these two really makes you think, I am hooking up with Fuzeman on Monday in the TA and so I will only get better (Someday lol)
Cheers guys

I see anything with hispanos as having the better guns.  But, in terms of learning to shoot, that 30 mm will definitely teach ya to ration your ammo....

Hey Big G, sorry for cherrypicking your G10. Keep it up, you'll get better! :)

Try the 109G-2   it gives almost what the G10 can do but unlike the G-10 it can Turn pretty well

The G2 is much slower though, so don't expect to outrun anything but spitfires.

However, one more big downside of the G10 is if you start flying it consistently, you will attract the attention of those freakin JB luftwobble nerds and they'll want to assimilate you into their borg colony. You can be JB45
LOL! Ya that was good Howitzer! :D But if it does happen Big G you are in an excellent squad. :)

Agreed... its obvious just how many never learned how to turn fight with the 'on pass, haul a**' flyers in the MA.

In fact, there is a poster on this thread that flies a La7 that way, you engage him and he runs. Once you rev, he does the same. Real shame :(

Personally.....

The best plane to start in is the F6F....you can fly it almost any way you want and you can kill anything else in the game. You'll score better faster in other planes....but you'll get better faster in an F6. When you  look at the best sticks in the game you'll find they're F6 drivers (no disrespect to shane levi etc).

No, absolutely not! There is someone else I was refering to...

Relax, I didn't intend to insult you, Furball. I know you're one of the more aggressive flyers. :)

if you want to learn ACM and be able to fight in any situation.. learn in a turnfighter.  I learned in Hurricane IIC, the speed of the plane makes you anticipate your opponents actions and think of ways to get yourself close enough to the target for the shot.

You may die a lot at first, but you will have a lot of 'eureka!!' moments when you figure moves and techniques out - its a hell of a lot of fun.

Look for the nearest enemy CV and up a IIC up into the hoard, as much fun you can possibly have in AH imo.

Once you learn those moves you can adapt them and use them in ANY aircraft.  Learning to BnZ from the start will just teach you bad habits.



Very sound advice I think

Spend time learning TnB  , do a little bit of BnZ and then move quickly on to E-fighting. Lots just get stuck at BnZzzzz
