Mike take that thing into a 5 Vs you or greater and it is all kinds of fun, otherwise your right = numbers or 1 v 1 it is too easy.  But then when I'm flying Rook I feel like I'm cheatin since there are always so many around. :D

In the first weeks when it came to AH, I thought what the hell ill take it for a spit to see what it can do.  Ended up taking off from a capped base, shot down 3 and then started to head home looking at my gas tank and the number of friendlies over the base I was at.  Then 7 enemy cons come along and bounce in on me.  Sadly all 7 of these pilots had been shot down and I flew away to make it home.

After that 1 sortie I thought wow what a lame plane and needs to be perked.

Even tho the spit XVI is a remarkable plane to fly, I don't think it needs to be perked.  It is still just as easy as any other spit to kill.

And as I've said a hundred times.  I'd rather see the mob in 16s then LA7s cause the 16 drivers will at least get into the fight and try and turn with you, and they can't outrun everything.

A great stick in a 16 can make it do wonders, but that applies to many AH birds.  An average stick in a 16 is just another target who thinks the bird he's flying will make him better and as mentioned, he can't run away in a 16.

I always fly the 16. But now seeing that you all think it's lame, I might start flying something "cooler". Do chicks dig the 205?

Sure, the 205 is much cooler. At least, you can learn that flying the Macchi the energy is not free. Chicks love E-management :)

Perking ain't necessary, all HT needs to do is change the boast message to read: "So-and-so has landed 3 kills in a Spitfire Mk.XVI. What a dweeb."

Fill the cockpit with chicks, play rap music and go on a joy ride down town.
