I dont fly perks much either but I'm not about to tell somebody what they need to, or dont need to, fly. The FU4-4 is about the only perked plane I have interest in, add the AR-234 to that. I think this is a legitimate complaint but there should be control models for the airplanes. That is if you want to keep the perks even with what they were when you took off then you shouldn't be allowed a re-arm. If you want to roll with the floating perks, and some guys have so many they dont care, then you can re-arm as often as you like.
But to have 262s going off at 125 perkies due to eny, and to allow the game to maintain the perk amount , AND, allow unlimited re-arms? Might screw up the balance some.
On the other hand Ive always believed perked airplanes just dont tilt the game much because there are so many effective low eny airplanes out there. And not just that but there are numerous, capable ,15+ eny planes that can mix it up with anything. I was in one such plane yesterday, the 205.
