let me drop my flaps at the correct speed :t I have a hunch that the LW rides won't suck quite as much in ToD... I'm assuming most of hte fighting will happen up high, and fights way up in the sky are a wee bit different than what we get in hte MA. That being said, maybe they'll suck even more... who knows? Just fix my damn flaps... :O

For those who feel like checking it out, you can fly the Axis rides against their US and British counterparts in the Axis vs. Allied arena right now.  There were over 100 people in there on Sunday at once for a bomber raid!  Suprising as it may seem, ALL of the LW fighters are carrying better then 1:1 K/D!

The LW kill:death alone does not mean that the planes aren't "broke". They're still broke, despite their kill:death ratio.

they are carrying the kill death ratio that they are because most of the players in the axis rides have years of experience in them and are generally very aggressive and communicate well.  unlike their counterparts.

OR a more likely explanation given the .8 kills per sortie and less than 3 kills per hour of the Pontiff here, they are not aggressive at all, but good at waiting for the cherrypicking.

Despite various peoples subjective assessments of them being "broke",  the 109s and 190s are still very competitive in a historical matchup.  As Storch points out, tactics and pilot skill are the most important element.

Flew in the AvA arena for a little last night... 190a5 vs 51B seemed a fairly even matchup. 1v2-3 it was still manageable. 109G6 vs. spitVIII seemed easy, but I'm used to turning with spits in K4's, so I guess a G6 should seem that way. I don't know (care) enough about 190's to say if they're busted or not... I will say that the A8 should be much better than it is, if pilot accounts of the plane are of any indication. Fix the flaps on 109's and they should be competitive in most historical matchups. You have to be better to fly 109's. I can live with that.
