Does Dubya fly Aces High? Seems like his style...
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

perking the 38  would do nothing .your talking about guys thats been playing this game for years and flying the 38 so there not using them . they dont even care about landing there kills .they run out of ammo or gas they auger there plane and reup.but what would happen the newer guys that would like to learn the plane .they would be limited.and the funny thing is they fly low side country's and when they fly knights everyone's there best buddy .and what are we talking about here a couple guys throwing a wrench in there undefended base taking. :noid


i always land.


it's just a question of how large of an area my landing parts cover. or how deep they sink.  :rofl

I just find it strange that it's only those in SAPP that are able to make shots in a vertical zoom climb from d1.2 out and kill with just a single 20mm round.  Or why is it only that SAPP players are able to out turn planes that are well known to be better maneuvering planes like the Hurricane IIc, A6M5, Seafire, Spitfire 9, Spitfire 8 and the P-51B (which hands down in real life was far better than the P-38 ever was, which was recently shown on that Great Planes on the Military Channel).  Not to mention that any of the Luftwaffe aircraft were far superior with the exception of the Stuka and maybe the Bf 110C-4.  The others blow the P-38 out of the water but that's not the case here for certain players, which proves that SAPP players get specially 'tuned' P-38Js and the Luftwaffe fighters are extremely under modeled.  I just watched last week on my Wings of the Luftwaffe DVD how easily a Bf109 could out maneuver in both the vertical and horizontal against a P-38 and basically thought they were nothing more than flying targets.  But that's not how it is in here.  Need any more facts or proof?




You should probably stay away from quoting the Military Channel. No way do they give all the planes the right credit. The P-51B was not "hands down" better than the P-38 at anything. Its all about the pilot. 25% Plane - 75% Pilot

That's just silly.  Why would you believe something like that?  It's not like some of those guys are running around the boards with special HTC bestowed tags under their names  :noid


Im so mad that my 38 has been besmirched. I may start both engines from now on.............

Anyone who believes SAPP have anything other than good skills, seriously needs their head testing - they are simply that good!!

The key point to remember here is that P38 pilots do it better.

What 'it' is, we're not sure, but we do it better :)

Great screenshot Corky!  A great way to end Operation Perk The P-38J, another successful SAPP operation.
