F4U-1A mostly, still trying to learn it.

For a change I'll take a 1C, or a 1D if I need ord.  I don't much like flying other planes for now though.  When I do I invariably find myself in a situation thinking "Geez, an F4U would be perfect for this." 

If a base is under a ridiculously heavy attack, sometimes I'll up a Brewster just cause it's so much fun to dodge and roll in it.   
You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

Let me add, for pure fun I like the versatile TBM, What other plane can you actually aim rockets in!?
