nuh uh i would buts out my uber sams and blow ur arse in to t3h pieces and then i would fly a b52 and destroy ur crippled remains

[hubsonfire]

I would be suicide diving formations of b52s into carriers, and mindlessly furballing in Mig 15s, HOing anyone who wouldn't turn.

I wouldn't be that interesting in micromanaging a jet cockpit, but a Korea or Viet Nam era AH flavor might be interesting. Not real sure about the missle thing. I like the idea that people I shoot know I'm there and see it coming. I want them to know they're going to cartoon die.

Was one of the first really good online/offline flight sims.

My prediction on the different area arenas would most likely leave everyone in the Modern Arena.  The horde  loves uber planes and the F-22 is uber enough.

I would fly nothin but Korea. In AW i flew sabre for 4 years then tried the mig when they made both available for AZ and BZ land and flew it for 1 year (then AW went Pfffffffft) . Sabre had 1 notch of flaps at 300 Mig 150. Sabre went downhill faster, Mig went uphill faster.  Made for some great fights, long ones too. Sabre had 6 50's and mig had 30mm with 2 23mm fer bb's and lots of it. Best of all you could get 4 flights in, in a hour, like I say nothin RTB's like a jet.  And fightin jets with air brakes Rules.

I'm aghast that no one has mentioned the baddest of the bad...

F8 Crusader  for me, thank you very much.

B58 Hustler for those buffing runs.

Definately the F-8 Crusader in Vietnam.

It was the last US fighter where the guns were the primary weapons, it also had a pair of Sidewinders.

Navy pilots used to say of their ride, "When you're out of Crusaders, you are out of fighters!"

Now how can you argue with that?

Hmmm Korean war would be a toss up between the F-86 or the F-9F Panther

Vietnam would be the F-8 Crusader or the F-105 Thunder Chief

Modern, either the F-16 or the F/A-18

[Serenity]

Korea in the Sabre, or 'Nam in the Phantom.

[Rino]

Jet combat, where the men are men and auger proxies are numerous!

[Nilsen]

Id be in a SAM battery starring at the radarscreen.... prolly next door to an LTAR sam camp

[lagger86]

I would up the F-14 tomcat and just fly over friendly bases requesting a fly by repeatedly. Sometimes I would say "talk to me goose", and if anyone came up behind me I'd hit the brakes and they would fly right by....If I ever did shoot anyone I'd say "Jesters dead". If there was no F-14, I'd probably fly The A-10 and HO everyone with my giant cannon of death.
