Nothing wrong w/ 190s, other then it can't fight that well vs just about any plane w/ a good pilot in it amirite?

F4Us, P51, P47, Tiff, Temp, all these are great bnzmer and capable of tnbning. The ability to turn helps a lot in bnzming also. Let say I need to crank a quick 6G pull to get a shot off on someone. You can't do it in a 190 as easy. Where in them other plane you can np.

I flew the 152 last night for a good hour, it handle better then any 190s otd low and slow. It felt like I was in a P-47D11 rather then a 190. I've read these guys talk about the crazy snaproll the 152 have (maybe it was something else) but through my 1 hour tnbing that plane last night I couldn't see that snaproll or w/e bug it has. No matter how hard I pull on the stick trying to create the snaproll. The 152 characteristic is a lot different then the rest of the 190s. It's a lot better in turnfighting. I can see why it's a 5 perkie plane, where all the other 190s are 15-31 perkies.

Most of the top ranked pilots have lots and lots of kills in Tempests and C-Hogs. :P

I would rather have a D9 against a Spit or Corsair than a P-51. Possibly I'd even prefer it to the P-47 in this situation. None of the 3 planes turns anywhere near as well as the Spit or Hog anyway, they will all be using E fighting, and the 190s better weight-to-power ratio allows it to maintain an E advantage longer, enough to give you maybe one more gun pass before the E is equal and you have to extend.

Perks/Sortie would not necessarily, and truly, reflect what you are driving at.

The "perk multiplier" is constantly being adjusted by the "numbers/ENY" in each country.

You could be forced to fly only real high ENY planes (example: Spit I) and still have a perk multiplier of 0.0something, while at the same time, a guy could fly a N1K on the low number team and be working with a perk multiplier of 5.

If the perk multiplier was static, then this might work.

Hoarders dont get as high of ranks. ;) On a serious note, this might encourage more people to fly low #'s countries. :aok

The fact that the A8 is 31 ENY and it's basically the same as the F8, if not better in fighting terms.

I like flying it, but I think it's quite cheap when you get 2 kills in it and get nearly 15 perks for it. Hey, I'll take it, but it seems cheap.
