Editorial... (or not)

[Kurt]

When you fools get your P39 (assuming you do).

A month from now when you are back in your favored fighters... And your obsolete P39 is a hanger queen...  Flown only in FSO and other such staged events...

I'll ask you..

Why did you steal our chance to add a good M.A. plane to the game?

And you'll say "I fly Early"

Right, between early war and mid war thats what ... 75 pilots?  I already understand you 75...  But 500 or so are in the Late war M.A.  What about the rest of you?


Oh, You took it because its mid engine, and has a big gun..

Ugh.  Mark my words. HANGER QUEEN

[Soulyss]

I'll answer your question with a question.
When it is ok to add anything that's not a late war MA oriented plane?

That wasn't a question.

Sticking a question mark on the end of a sentence doesn't automatically make it a question.

I'm not bagging on you, I just don't understand what you meant to ask.

No Oldman..

I'm not getting sucked into the "Our arena owns your arena" discussion... I'm just telling you, most people are in the L.W... Go ahead... Disagree, I dare you.


I think closer to the truth is that the late war flyers don't understand that this plane is fodder in the L.W. arenas...   They don't know what they voted on, and they are going to die in droves...

And that is why it will be a hanger queen in a month... (in the L.W. arenas)

Greetings,

  We shall see.  But I believe, and others can correct me if I am incorrect, the P39 had a pretty good run on the Eastern Front.

  MA is pretty much fought below 15k and is similar in many aspects to that theater - not the fight most US planes were designed and built for.  Only by exception do I find anyone above 30 (I hear the alt monkey screams now .

  In addition to filling the scenario / FSO needs, it just may well turn out to be a decent MA plane.  Not that I will abandon my Jug any time soon tho.

Regards,

Lot's of guys like the challenge of taking and early-midwar bird into latewar and taking on the hotrods.

This 38G driver sure does anyway.  Seems to me i see guys flying P40s in latewar, or 109Fs, Zekes or what have you.

Not everyone needs the latest and greatest to compete as their competition is in seeing how they can make the not so late and greatest perform against those uber birds.

And as MWL said, the 39 is a low alt performer where the AH war is fought at.  Intercepting bombers at 20K isn't the P39s job. but racing around on the deck is.

tell ya what, once we have the P-39 you feel free to bring whatever you feel like and look for the folks in the p-39's. Once you get your clock cleaned a few times you'll feel better.

You really are clueless...there isnt a plane in the set thats a hanger queen in the LWA. They all get used. The p-39 will do very well in the LWA....

I want to ride my bicycle.

I want to ride my bicycle.

I want to ride it where I like.

the closest thing I can think of to a true hangar queen in the Ma is the AR 234
There arent any real hangar queens
Hell I even fly the 109 E and F in the LW arena

[BaldEagl]

Umm...  Except for one ride in a Spit XVI tonight the only planes I flew were the Hurri MkIIC and the P-38G, both EW planes and I never stepped out of the LWA's.

Uhh... That WAS a question.  Almost any sentance beginning with Who, What, Why, Where, When or How is a question and, while there are a few exceptions, this wasn't one of them.  The question was, WHEN will adding an EW plane vs. a LW plane be OK? which could be re-stated as; Will it ever be OK to add a EW plane?  Get it?

[NOT]

When it is ok to add anything that's not a late war MA oriented plane?

actually, based on how this sentence is worded, it is not a question. it is a statement ending in a question mark.

for it to be a question it would need to read: "When is it ok to add anything that's not a late MA oriented plane?"
