FM2 is a tidy turner. if you throw it into DA Furball you're always gonna walk away with a kill or 5. Then again, throw anything into there and you walk away with a kill.... even an rv8.  :rolleyes:

i'd say the n1k2 is underrated.

i think its cuz maybe alot of ppl think "jap plane = slow" or something..  nik CAN dive! and retains E well.. and turns... and has spray and pray magazines.. now if it could roll..................

By the numbers the N1K's energy retention is mediocre, and comparable to the 109 series.  The Ki-61 is actually ~12% more efficient with energy retention than the N1K.  The N1K's dive acceleration is nothing special, either.

Yeah, the Mossie is a nasty bird. Prolly has the best gun package of them all and can turn very well. Now if the flame dampers would be removed...oh my...

P40, Some of my best fights are in these. As long as you go in with altitude and keep your speed up its a great plane.  It can take a heck of a lot of damage too. The on problem with it is that everybody sees it as an easy kill and you will quickly get ganged. As long as you finish the fight before its gets low and slow its a great plane.

I love my FM-2, even gave it a nick name. I call her stubby             


57 Kills in her this month


Another favorite of late is becoming the Ki-61, only 11 in the main so far but just started with her there.

Elongated nose to house the cannon and fairly decent MG has a high rate of fire and can turn well.




LAst favorite fun plane to fly would be the C.202.
