The La7's TnB performance is overrated. It takes about 10 years to drop full flaps, by that time your as good as dead against any of the dedicated late war TnB planes. It also takes about a good 20 years to roll the La7 with full flaps.

Why TnB against a plane you can out E and out run?

Ruaml wasn't bad in the La7 either.

On more than one occasion, he headed straight for me, only to turn less than 2k in front of me and Auto grab.  I never saw him in an La7.

Hehe.. I'm not making it up :)

It's one of the only top-end planes that so easily reaches flap speed while pushing WEP in a flat turn.

I was replying to BnZ's post about the La7's TnB performance.

its not the plane's that show a dweeb, its the pilot that points a finger at anyone for flying any plane, there are no dweeb plane's, they are all fun.

fun is what we are here for, and the folks that feel because they are more , cough cough skillful in and particule plane, call others dweebs.

another issue is the person that pulls maunevers that can't really be done in RL is a cheater, i.e. stick stir, and other stupid move's.

if u try and defend doing this only shows u can't fly,  :lol

As stated already, it’s not the plane but the pilot and how they use the plane.

Example: I fly the Temp a lot... I absolutely hate BnZ and will not do it. I would much rather be in a turn fight low and slow on the deck, but I turn fight the Temp and push it to its max. I may extend a while, but I WILL turn back in unless I’m damaged badly and I’m RTB-ing or I have no ammo.  I know what it can and can’t do and use it to my advantage. Does that make me a Dweeb? If so why and then tell me how what you do is different and how your not a dweeb.

If a Dweeb is someone who knows their plane in and out and uses it to their advantage, what is a real fighter pilot then? You don’t see pilots flying more than one type of plane in RW at the same time… so why cant someone pick a plane and learn it in here? Thats one of the reasons why America was so successful in WW2 because all of our pilots knew how to use their planes effectively. They knew what their planes could and couldn't do, along with their enemy's.

Dweeb to me is someone who takes the easy way out instead of trying to use/develop their skill. So that would be all your hoers and BnZers. Anyone can ho and anyone can BnZ. There is nothing special about it. Just because these practices were used a lot in RW, doesn’t mean they should be here. In RW it was a real life or death situation, here you can just re-up.

Yep but I do have admit there were some like Shane that could make the La7 dance on the head of a pin.


ack-ack

Shane was damn good in the LA. Best I've seen in the time I've been here.
His specialty seemed to be to force the overshoot. Then make you pay for overshooting. Often within mere moments of the overshoot.
