Oh don't worry. You'll find out when all the brail is sanded off, the seeing eye dog goes blind, and the piano explodes.

Oh, ya.     Duh.            :lol

Yes thanks for postings all.  Some have done well in none perk type planes.  Congrads!

Based on everyone's comments, maybe like baseballs Hall of Fame and steroids if anyone wins a category it should be noted in some way that they used an easy mode type plane (perk type plane).

I am saying to distinguish in some way those that win such a category that are "skilled challenged" from the pilots with real skill.  Yes it is possible for a good pilot to win this in an easy mode plane.  I'm just sayin.

Maybe by ENY modifying the score points in the same way they modify perks gained?

True for a bigpart of the planeset... but with some planes it would be exceedingly difficult to get the 5 kills per sortie, 12 kills per hour needed to get all the way to the "top", especially in those lacking firepower. I think of planes like C.202, P40B, Spit I. Doable, but much more difficult than doing it in a Tempest.

Spit9 is about as easy as the 16.  Try getting it done in the 38.. ;)

No plane is easy mode you can put a noob in a 262 or a tempest and hes no more of a threat than in a hurri1.

Well obviously when one calls a plane easy mode it refers to its capabilities when the average run of the mill MA pilot takes handle of it and is able to easily outperform a very high percentage of the populus.  Not the two week noob that can barely lift off.  So yes, there are planes that are easy mode.  And I'd hardly call the Me262 easy mode, I rarely see pilots landing more than 5 kills in it consistently.
