I guess if you want to call me timid you can, but I don't think those other two are timid. The Typhoon is not a very popular air superiority plane most just use it to Jabo fields not strictly to fight fighters as I do.

Yup, forgot about them. I don't know how BGB flies, but I know Xdak isn't particularly timid either...So, that's 5 people out of 3,000 that fly the Typhoon as their main ride...Yea, you must be right Akak, it must be a fabulous plane relative to the rest of the set to attract such an enormous and dedicated percentage of players.

yes the MIGHTY TYPHOON O DEATH

the reason its my main ride for just going out to kill planes


1) CANNONS   -

they shoot like lazers and lotsa ammo..i rarley have time enuff to use smaller calibers as it seem im always in a gang bang..and outnumbered so i need the power to kill soemone with a small quick burst..then move on to next taget quickly

2) SPEED
    Catching the runners in the game..not the fastest..but its fast
    It turns decent but spits-p51s ect can all outturn it..So typically i have 3-    4 turns with the enemy, before i need to extend to get the guy to     overshoot again; )


Basiclaly if you know your planes abilitites use them..whatever you fly

I have flown the LA7 in the MA maybe 10 times in 3 years..just flew it agian few days ago...AMAZING RIDE..truly

and ak ak..you say typhoon timid?..I say Your a purse swingn cherry picker..But like i said before..If your in a plane that isnt the fastest and you wan tyour naem up in lights ..fighting liek u usally do is the right way...purse swinger; )

How does a typhoon figth a coalt spit?..JOUST FIRST...then turn once or twice..if he gets behind you dive..put brakes on ..make him over shoot..make shot

I HATE jousting with the Typhoon. It has an EXTREMELY vulnerable front end. A few small calibre rounds from a forward quarter shot is generally enough to knock out your engine oil, radiator and/or engine. But, I do agree on the overshoot thing. The Typhoon is FABULOUS at making planes like the La7 overshoot, or any plane that retains E very well. The only problem is if you force the overshoot and miss your shot you risk getting into a rolling scissors fight which is Baaaaad Mojo for a Typhoon.

No real offense intended but you're a shining example of a timid limp wristed player that flies a Typhoon.  Every time I've run into you in the MA, you've always run for help or to nearby acks, regardless if you have the advantage or not.  

It's OK though, we've known for a long time that you're just a typical Rainbow Warrior, we don't hold it against you but don't get mad if we do point and laugh at your from time to time.

What I would like to know is on the basis of what empirical information do you determine certain individuals only fly from a perch or in a horde and do not get down low and mix it up? I can't remember the last time I saw you in my area, the only reason I know you fly low n' slow is you are telling me you do and I'm assuming you're not lying about it.

Well Zazen now I have empirical information.  Last night was a perfect example of how you fly and what I said.

You sat a top the Rook horde over 18, cherry picking to your little hearts desire.  You got lucky enough to nail Stang at the top of a zoom climb and Max.  So I guess those that spoke of you and your dweeb style were telling the truth after all.

The funniest thing about it was how you gushed all over yourself and chan 200 after landing your huge 4 kill sortie and how you got Stang and Max.  LOLH  Big skillz there bud:aok

For the way you fly, the Typhi is more uber and easy mode than a spit16 under any circumstance.

Well it was either that, no fight at all or vulch like all the other Rooks were doing! The only reason I commented on the nature of my kills is because Slapshot said,  "Wtg Zazen, nice vulches", on 200, I just pointed out that they were not vulches.

Well at least your not denying it now.   But there were other fights, or you could have done what the rest of us did, switch to the side where the fights were more challenging.

You were gushing like a school girl.

I'm just suprised Stang was such a grapefruit and didn't take you to task on it.   Then he started with the other guy.  hhahahah   He likes you.

Mars buddy, I think I found out where you are not clueing in here. The Typhoon is not the best plane for how I fly. I fly to make the best use of the Typhoon's strengths. The plane is the absolute, it is the inflexible aspect of the equation, it cannot change its most basic properties, it's all hardcoded mathematics. Therefore, it is up to the human being to adapt to the plane they are flying because the plane sure as hell isn't going to adapt to the pilot. Human beings are not constrained by any absolutes, human beings can adapt almost infintely to accomodate their environment.

Only a fool would fly a Typhoon the same way as a SpitXVI or vice versa. The style one flies is largely dictated by the plane one flies. When in a turning plane you are primarily looking for planes to turn with, when in a speed plane you are primarily looking for planes to E-Fight.

I can't switch sides on a whim I am part of a squadron that is loyal Rooks. The only times I switch is when Rooks do something  that utterly disgusts me, such as when they attempted to capture FT on donut map.

Stang and I are friends. We have known each other for over 10 years, we were squadmates for 7 of those years. I have been Stang's (and his brother Neo's) squadmate waaaaaaaaay longer than any BK's have. He knows very well if he makes a tiny mistake around me, being the opportunistic bastard I am, I will take advantage of it. He's just man enough to not be shocked or pissed-off or piss n' moan publicly when I do so. His very next hop he gave me a shot on his 262, I dropped him then too, he knew he blew it, and again didn't blame me for taking advantage. Unlike some people he doesn't blame other people for what happens to him, he knows if I killed him he screwed up and I just took advantage of his mistake.

I didn't say anything about TnB with a Typhi.  What I did say is a typhi is one of the easiest planes to fly BnZ or in a horde any style.

I'm not sure about that. The P47, P51D, Fw190, Yak, La7, La5, 109, 205 and P38 excel in that role as well, which is best probably depends on the pilot more than the plane.

Now we got the things straight can you just stop posting non sense and stop offending people not involved in your "debate" ?
