hey latrobe. as much as i feel it should be perked, seeing as how it is faster than the spit14, the ta, the f4u4, and c. and has as good or better armament as those planes.

the best reason ive heard for why it isnt perked is that a line for perking planes needed to be drawn somewhere, an the LA is on the unperked side of the fence. However i would like to see the LA perked an draw the line at one of the corsairs instead.

no, i dont think it needs to be perked.  I actually used it a bit last month, forgot how much fun it can be in low fast fights and base defense.

SOMTHING needs to be done, but I doubt perking will be that somthing. I for one would be happy with realistic settings for LA7 and all other planes as well.

 If we are going to name the planes after real planes- THEY SHOULD BE MODELED AFTER REAL PLANES.

And you base your comments on your experience flying real WW2 planes? :)

You used to fly La7's in the Great Patriotic War?

The La7 does not need to be perked.  It in no way creates an unbalance in game play.   The argument of "everyone flies them!" is not sufficient enough reason because no matter how many fly them, it still does not create an unbalance.  There are other planes that provide a good counter to the La7.  Besides the La7 dies as easy as any other plane.

Please bring forth your in-depth research that proves that the La-7 is modeled incorrectly ... many of us would love to see it.

Because long time ago, it was unbalancing the game on a large scale.

I must say, I don't see what all the fuss about the La 7 is.... Sure... there are so many of them in the MA... but they aren't that dangerous.

They're quick and nimble... but are definately out-flyable

I am very much a n00b and mainly fly 109s and 190s and I have no more trouble with La's than I do with any other aircraft.

Also, pardon my ignorance, what is a chog?
