P-51B and D models

[Gaboon]

I was just reading through some threads and in game I would have to say the P-51 is by far the best plane in the game. At speed and 1 notch a flaps it will turn on a dime. The ammo load is very good and if your a crack shot the kills will pile up fast. The fuel load out is the key to its performance in my opinion. I usually took a load out of 75% with drop tanks for bomber hunting and 50 to 75% for fighter cap sweeps. My longest mission was 1 hour and 47 minutes with 15 bombers and 6 fighters with out rearming. Most kill mission with out rearming was 23 being 6 bombers and 17 fighters. In the hands of a good stick the Pony is near unbeatable. Best pony pilot I ever came across is Steve. The hubbub about the F4u is quite true the flight model is stretched as thin as a rubber band but still I'll fly the Pony over any others. I must say this though I have flown the f4u4 and I landed 15 and still had a ton of ammo left. I am not sure of what the ammo load out difference is between the Pony and the Hog but i'll still take the Pony.

welllllllll... it is possible if he took out the lead bomber and the drone(s) went in as freebies...

maybe it was in offline mode?   or an old H2H room

Thanks for the  kind word.  1v1, I think the f4u is a better plane but the 51 has some very sweet points and is well suited to the MA: great views, stellar high speed handling, long legs.  23 kills, in one clip out does my best by far, that's impressive. My best in one clip is 13 or 14.

Killing bombers is one thing i know how to do and do it very well if you dont believe me just ask 999ooo and his bomber mate I am sure they will vouch for my bomber attack tactics. If you have patience and know how to attack a bomber it will go down and you wont be touched 99% of the time. Airjer was one of those 15 bombers that day ask him also. Agood aim comes into play also most of my fighter kills are on very short burst taking a wing off or dead in the head on high deflection shot.

I'd have to say the Dpony is the best all around plane in the game imo, but I believe F4Us rack up more kills on me then any other single aircraft. But I probably kill more 51s then any other plane too. Not counting bombers.

5 or 6 kills with one clip is about all I can come up with. But I see skatsr get 10 or 12 all the time in one run.

I landed 5 kills with a Bpony last week I think. But 2 of them augered while blinded by ACM 

just checked...Dponys killed me the most, F4us close 2nd.I've kill more spit16s then any other fighter.

If the Ki-84 didn't risk loosing it's wings at high speed it would be the best plane in the set...actually I still think it's better
