Real life - F15 in all its variants - just an awesome looking plane

Ingame - Spit, all of them (I dont generally fly the 16 tho - no idea why, I just dont!)

That said, I have a very special place in my heart for the P38 - there is just something about that plane - It drags me into flying it when I get the urge (I really really suck in it mind - ask Silat  :D)

I'm the worst pilot ingame ya know!!!

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.

Who underestimates the 109?  :rolleyes:

And while we're on the subject of underestimating. Don't underestimate a GOOD spitfire pilot. Just because it was among the very best in WWII doesn't mean the pilots were dweebs.  :aok


I'm not saying Spit pilots are terrible bunch, but I can beat most of them because of my skill. :aok

Bruv would kill me though Spit V. G6 :noid

I have the most fun in a fighter mode A-20, though I do lousy in it.  But then again I do lousy with every aircraft in AH.

P.S.  If I could own any aircraft in real life it would be a Fokker D.VII.

In game - 190A5

RL WW2 - P-47's are very prominent to me, mostly because one of Republic's manufacturing sites of the P-47 is close by, as well as the B-17, B-25 and C-47.

RL Korea - Vietnam : F-86, Mig-21, F4 Phantom, most importantly the B52.

RL 1980's - Present: F-14 Tomcat, YF-23 (it never got into production but it is easily one of the sexiest looking fighters ever built), Su-35, Mig 1.44, and foremost the Dassualt Rafale and the Saab J-35 Draken.

WHY do you force me to pick ONE!

Yes I agree, spitfire 1st, corsair 2nd, p51 3rd

I NEVER fly spits in this game, someday maybe. 
The corsair in this game is either too much or too little
The p51 is pretty elite.

Supermarine Spitfire Mark V in real life and The Supermarine Spitfire Mark IX & VIII

The reason is as follows

Mark Five Because it has the looks and feel of a spit 1a but has the sting of hispano cannons and My In game favourites the 9 and 8 because of their handlling and Fire power

Plus to further on the Dweeb debate i will challange anybody who doubts my spit driving

And they ARE SEXY

If I had to choose a plane to make love to it would be the p38 hands down.


When I die bury me in a P38.

I watch day after day, week after week, tour after tour, the Bishops and Rooks take bases and win maps while the Knights stand there with their thumbs stuck in their butts. It's just pathetic!

The Bf 109, in all variants.  But if I had to choose one, it would be the E-7, F-2, G-6/AS, or G-10, simply because we don't have these necessary 109s in the game, yet. ;)

I like the Bf 109 because it was the greatest fighter of World War II, of course. :aok

------------------

P.S. The Spitfire looks like a plane meant to appeal to women, like a Mazda Miata. :devil

+1   :aok

Spot on there man....  :rock
