Same WEP duration for both: 5 minutes.

Wow,
I guess there always has to be someone who wants to ruin a good thread. I came on the board looking for advice and constructive opinions about one of the planes in the game, and now it looks like someone thinks I'm a dweeb for wanting to learn the in's and out's of the P-47. Obviously a troll by someone who has nothing better to do than stir up hate and discontent, but what the heck, it's my thread so I'll bite:aok

Why are all other planes besides the T-152 and 190's dweeb rides???

For everyone else that HAS posted positive comments relative to the subject, Thank You ~~The input has helped. The few times I've flown the 47 the last couple of days has been allot of fun and I'm actually landing kills:D~~

I don't think that that was BatFink's intent.

He is a SpitFire boy ... so he flys all planes like a SpitFire except those two. Those of us that do fly the SpitFire (almost exclusivly) are called dweebs ... ergo ... all planes, with the exception of those two are dweeb planes.

Its just humor ... thats all.

Uh OK I'll take your word for it. Not a slam here but is he British because the humor is lost on me:confused:

Hornet,

Mechanic" AKA Batfink is a Brit. Yes he loves his Spits as do I. Class act by the way as well.

It was humor, so take it as humor.

Good luck in your Jugs.

D25/D40- Manuevarbility is the same IMO, D40 is better in verticle.. D40 is superior to d25 IMO.

P47N- Seems to retain E a smidge better than d40/d25. More engine so it's faster. Manueverability is maybe just a little worse than d5/d40 but not that much at all if it is. Amd netter roll rate IMO.

D11- Faster than D25/D40, turn rate is better. Only weakness is that it's not too good in vertical and it's a razorback.

Overall tip- You dont fly it like a spitfire.. You fly it like you would a mans plane. It's more work. Gotta know when to chop your throttle and dump flaps and how to cut angles to achieve a snapshot. I'd highly value gunnery if i were you i'd go offline increase my guns ammo load under areana settings find "planeammomulti" (or something like that) increase it to like 1000000000000000000 or something. Shoot hte drones. Dont keep comin from their 6. Try angle shots and all sorts of wierd stuff. ANd remember ya gotta show a little tail to get the advantage sometimes so dont be afraid

Experiment.

Holly crap he is a Brit. I just looked at his location under his avatar. I honestly didn't know that when I posted.

Hope there are no hard feeling about my earlier posts. Brit humor is beyond me. My wife watches British comedy's and I just don't get it.

My bad:eek:

The Brits don't get it either, it's just that it beats old reruns of Seinfeld....

the d-11 used to be my prime ride .. great turner nice perfomance .. but needed serious fuel management ... Now the N model that thing just Rocks .. it does everything better then the other models ... you can jabo , hi alt escort , furball , anything ... now theres some tricks of the trade to get the best perfomance out of the N .... (for a small fee i'll have my mechanic talk to your mechanic)

on the deck in a N ran outta wep then lost an aleron ... the flaps become useless at that point and really make it get wobbly . yes its a Flap grabbin ,throttle banging , Big Dogs Ride ...

Can't tell you how many guys have collided with me and i've lost parts but still remained flyable while they descended in pieces.
