P-38 kill ratio...out of whack.

[Plazus]

P38s suck!! Dont fly them! Evveerrr!   

[CAP1]

See that last picture CAP posted?  You see all those tracers?  Those aren't ack rounds. Those are actually flying out of CAP's 38. 

Does that answer the k/d question?

that would be the


.deathstar  command.

Maybe it's the stealth mode that enables us to fly through hangars without being seen.

Then take a listen to this!

"Schadenfreude? What's that, some some kind of Nazi word?"
"Yes, it's German for the happiness in the misfortune of others."
"Happiness in the misfortune of others? That IS German!"

I will admit I was shocked my K/D was that high considering all the crap I fly into 

[5PointOh]

S.A.P.P. People are EVIL!!

[texastc316]

<<< 1.3.  Sigh

[B4Buster]

just looked,

pony is the plane I kill the most, Spit 16 is the plane I kill second most. That was shocking too, can't catch the ponys usually.

f6f, then 38j.

[Karnak]

Karnak, have you lost it? It is pretty low-average in the two basic attributes that noobs can use easiest for kills/survival....turn and speed. Couple that with the fact that it can be dangerous if you don't watch it in dives....the only "easy mode" part of the 38 is the gun aiming and the lack of torque, the latter being of dubious usefulness to the uninitiated anyway, except for take-off.

Me and Batfink tried something the other day. Me, starting off with an alt advantage 38J, him in a SpitIX. Fighting in the vertical to the absolute limit, I got in one burst, that unfortunately for me did not prove fatal, and lost position, so he got me in subsequent maneuvering. Then he tried the 38 and me the SpitIX for a few iterations...I got him each time in that variation. And Batty is an uberstick with a ton of experience in twin-engine designs with nose-mounted firepower.     The uber-plane it ain't unless you know your situation and *exactly* what you are doing.

The vast majority of targets you shoot in this game have no idea how to fight, so using Batfink or yourself as an opponent does not reflect on the actual ease of use.  The fact is that the P-38J and even more the P-38L are very easy to succeed with.  They have few vices and a lot of strengths.  They are not as easy as the Spit XVI or VIII or N1K2, but they are easier than the Ki-84.

[Ack-Ack]

In the MW arena, Spitfire Mk IX and the F6F-5 tie for first as my tops kills (21) with the C.205 taking 2nd place with 17 kills against it.  Combined total deaths from these three planes is only 9 (2 for F6F-5, 2 for C.205 and 5 for Spitfire Mk IX).  In the LW arena, the P-51D takes top honors as the plane I've shot down the most and the Spitfire Mk XIV takes 2nd place with 10 kills against it.  Total combined deaths from these two planes is 4 (2 for P-51D and 2 for Spitfire Mk XVI).

ack-ack
