Yup, Guys, it's amazing the ego on these maroons that ONLY fly Typhoons and 51s, then talk about their acheivements of like they have a clue. When these guys start Hording, Cherry Picking and Running in the Non-Top-Shelf Horder, Cherry Picker and Runner and succeed to the same degree they do in the Typhoons and 51s I'll be impressed.
The difference is the P51 or Typhoon pilot isn't typcially boasting, nor is he espousing that anyone who does not fly the P51 or Typhoon and in the manner he chooses to is a patehtic skill-less dweeb with no skill or talent. There's a reason 9 out of 10 noobs gravitate toward the Spitfire and can enjoy immediate success. You know the answer...but I'll tell you anyways....
IT'S A REALLY EZ PLANE TO FLY AND FLY WELL EVEN AT A DISADVANTAGE!!! EVEN FOR A PERSON WITH NO EXPERIENCE, SKILL OR TALENTSo, stallfighting on the deck even disadvantaged in a Spitfire, proves little else other than you can take a great plane, fly it the way it is best at, and do ok with it. Whooopdeeeedoooo!
This is no different than the P51 or Typhoon pilot that E-Fights. That's what the plane is good at, that's what the pilot does and if he's ok or better at it well Whooopdeedoo for him too!
The people that really impress me are the ones that fly a plane that's only mediocre at turning but still kick ass, now that's something to feel proud of, they definately get a big
. Bullz is a good example of that I can think of off the top of my head, he's always flying some mediocre plane you rarely see and yankin' and bankin' it, now THAT's impressive, if he were doing that in a Spit it'd just be a big he's no different than the other 500 guys doing that in a Spit.
Do you get my point?
