For me all 45 planes should be perked and ENY should raise the perk value at all planes not making them not flyable

MA is for fun. Paying for a plane is not fun. Fighting horrible odds taking out as many as you can before you die is fun. In doing so you die alot. Please leave MA to those who wish to have fun, fight, die and fight some more. When ToD comes about you can have all the little gay rules and perk/eny restrictions you want. You can even be a general if you want. A perk tag is a big "please gang bang me" sign. Perks are gay. They should be removed from the MA along with rank and score.

 imop,Spit16 in better fighter overall than LA7, and K-4, maybe the best fighter in MA

 is modeled like a balon, floating, fast, turn, roll, good climbing rate, fast over 10k ,
  Soo what has LA7 superior to Spit16? speed at low alt, that's all.

I still feel that the Spit 14 should have an updated boost.



Also, after this last patch, I do believe the Spit 1 has been porked.  I don't think it hits 12 boost and I was getting out turned at stall speeds by other planes.

Fast over 10k, hmmm, its fastest speed is at around 22k, and even then its just sub 400.

Updated XIV to 21lbs would have made it worth the perk price, as it stands the reduction in cost was nice, but still not worth it.

Kev tell him to check the La-7 at 20k, he would be surprised.


The La-7 isn't just fast low, its just that down low the speed and acceleration gap it has over most planes is widest. That doesn't mean it isn't a monster up high as well. Ask the LW folks who flew in the Niemen scenario. Many a 109 pilot came to the BBS with 'I can't believe how good those La-7s were up high...'

Yup, La7's have the largest advantage low, but most seem to think it magically turns into a pig above 10K and that is just not so. Its still a great plane at 20K, just not as dominant as it is low.

Porked??? After months of lobbying (including me:)) HTC finally gave Spit 1 a +12 boost based on 100 octane fuel used in battle of Britain.  Spit 1 should gain advantage over 109E in climb and level speed.

Spit 1 has very good sustained turn but it sure rolls slow like 109E.  If i reemember most of Sipt 1's  controll surfaces are fabric.

By porked I mean it happened imbetween 2.06 and 2.061.  I flew the spit 1 a few times before this bug patch.

Now the boost meter stops half way imbetween 10-11.  And now I am getting out turned at the Spit 1's stall speed by Spit 16's.

I measured 405 mph @ 20,000 feet using E6B. Similar to the SpitIX albeit about 5k lower.
