planes that have style

Never said the G-10 was uber.  Did say that 50% of the LW fans fly the G-10 because its the easiest LW plane to fly.

That's what makes it dweeby.

That's what makes it have no style.

To those that have always and will always fly the G-10 <S>!  I don't believe I am saluting all too many of the current G-10 pilots when I do that.

Easiest LW plane to fly? Ju88. Easiest to get kills in? 190A5(A8). Best performance? G10.

I would say 190 is 'easier' to fly than the 109. 190 has better roll rate, better high speed control, more stability.

I never encounter G10s that much and when I do they are usually flown by people that don't have a clue on how to fly them effectivly. I see more Yaks than G10s.

And the other 50% fly 190s because its the easier LW plane to get kills in I guess. And that makes 190 dweeby.

The 109F not only has style..it's just out right classy!  

It'll take dam near your entire ammo load to actually kill something BUT it'll turn with all those lovely spits doing their oh so often defensive turns.

You don't go high in Fw190A8, or it'll be waste of fuel.

Actually I thought it was pretty pathetic how you stayed @ 4k above us, while me and another Bish killed 3 of your countrymen in a fun furball duel. Then thinking I was not looking you swooped down on me to show your superior ACM skills only to be easily reversed and have one of your vators removed @ D9 (luv those hispannies!). But like Hristo pointed out that's good ACM.

Merry Xmas.

I wonder what of you're talking?

but one thing is that i dont give a zhit for countrymens whos doing something really stupid and who wouldn't do anything for others.

Try chill down already grandpa, ok?
My Fw190a8 has rarely flown above 18,000ft, max at 22,000ft when i might to try grab alt with some dweebstang.

If you do believe that I am bad flier, then fine, I probably can't change your mind when you're stubborn hater of me.
Now on i'll just ignore your posts, because you don't seem to listen, just talk BS.

Torque, you are full of it.

When you make 270 kill streak, then come here and talk to Fishu.

Until then, keep quakeing around.

Judging by her name, the 'Ugly Duckling' doesn't have such a high opinion of herself.
But I think she's plenty stylish.  You ever see a blue plane before?  "Did somebody

Hey Hblair Nice Pic,

What's that sticking out of the fuselage behind the Pilot? Is it where they wind it up

Glunz, they fixed the volcano kill bug.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

people try to put us down...

Let the kids fly their G-10s, and let them think they're cool.  When they mature, they'll realize on their own that the Franz is the true beauty.
Besides, as every G-2 and F-4 driver knows, it's the swarms of dweebs in the G-10 that makes 'em so effective.  con comes in, sees a 109, expects him to do something typical like climb into the stratosphere.  next thing you know the guy actually pulls a maneuver, and you have something resembling a dogfight.

Nath's comment on how he almost meets yaks more than the G10 made me go check the stats.

When looking at both planes' total engagement the comment seemed really wrong, but I then looked at the country specific and it turns out that almost half of the G10 engagements are done by the knights, and they fare quite well in it.

On the other hand they could use some help when flying the russian planes. They manage to have a <1 K/D in both the Yak and La5.  Bishops do well in the yak, but no better than the knights in the La5.
Rooks seems to be the masters of these planes and have >1 K/D in both of them (the LA only barely tho).

Damn RAM.. that is an ugly plane

It does take style to admit your love for such a plane in public

Of course... I'm not much better:

 

At least yours has a bubble canopy.
