What WW2 plane would you fly in real combat, in one-life-only arena ?

funked · « **Reply #1 on:** March 22, 2001, 12:23:00 PM »

P-47N
I'd climb up there where nobody could catch me, and not engage anybody. Ta 152 might scare me but I'd just wait until he ran out of fuel.

Including only mass-produced designs: P-51D

If ANY produced plane is allowed, then I'd go for either the F8F or the P-51H

The jets run outta gas too quickly.

Very tough question m8.

I guess I would have to fly either a P-38 (late model) or maybe an Fw-190F. Always two of my favorite planes and both were somewhat rugged for their designs.

Assuming engine reliabilty isnt modeled, it would have to be the Me262.

A late P-38 or a P-47N. For late/low production a P-51H or F7F.

Or I might go for a B-29 :-) At 30,000 feet.

Any aircraft that could engage, and disenage the enemy at will. In Aces High, that would be at least the following:

P51D Mustang
Tempest
LA7

Fw190D-9.

P-47M

Regurge · « **Reply #13 on:** March 22, 2001, 05:22:00 PM »

Fiesler Storch and a sniper rifle.

I'd fly around real low where noone would EVER find me, land near an enemy base and pop some poor sucker in the head while he's starting his engine

'course we'd need some infantry modeling for that.

Lephturn · « **Reply #14 on:** March 22, 2001, 06:24:00 PM »

P-47M

Hands down, not contest. Decent gas mileage. Extremely fast. Great diving ability. Superior high-alt performance. Can disengage from almost anything. Tough as nails.
