Who are you looking at  :headscratch: :huh, you looking at the right person, cause there is more than one thrash. As I just took a look at the total kills on the stats/scores, I typed in thrash99 in the late war tour 127, says I have 211 kills 174 deaths. I'm talking about how many so far that I have, not just in fighters.

In fighters ...

K/D = 0.71

K/hour of flight = 3.67

35 kills in the P-51 with 39 deaths in the P-51.

Yup ... your rippin' up the skys of AH.

I still want to see what sources he has to back up his claim the Spitfire Mk XVI should be removed from the game.

This thread is a compendium of all you need to know about the Rainbow XVI:

I remember threads like this because of the La7. You guys whined long and lound enough and HiTech castrated it for you. It was the ubiquitous newbie easy mode CrochRocket HOing HOARD ride. Now it's the spit16. Every newbie and no skill weenie drives one and doesn't have to have any experience or time in the saddel to kill the whiners here. Yeah, aint it a shame.

You show up over a feild and start having a good time in your personal peccodillo and all the weenies up spit16's to counter your hot streek. Instead of paying some fantasy dues you beleive you personaly paid to become an arbitor of Aces High moral worthiness. They just hop in a spit16 and easy mode wax your stupendous arse. It Ain't Fair you whine.

So much like modern politics. You think something is unfair to you personaly. Then you campaign and agitate for a law or ruling to castrate it in your personal favor. Your sales pitch hides your biased motivations under a pile of sanctamonius drivel to cover your shortcomings by punishing everyone in the community in your favor.

Like I said. An excellent technology thread acting as cover for a whine.........

Best comment of this thread.. :salute :salute And right on the mark!!

I don't know whether to laugh or shake my head in disbelief.  You do realize that the P-38J is one of the various Lightning models, correct?  So by virtue of me flying the P-38J, I've taken at least one Lightning model up.  On a side note, if ENY gets to the point where I can't fly the J, I'll take off in a G instead.  

Also, the P-38 is the only fighter I fly in the MA.  You'll see quite a few B-25H sorties under my belt for each tour as well.

I think I already stated why but here is a recap.  1) most won't duel me if I fly the P-38 2) it gives me a chance to learn the strengths and weaknesses of other planes 3) The other person usually doesn't select the P-38 for the duel.

I said it was laughable that you think someone that flies one plane in the MA is somehow less "skilled" then someone like you that flies multiple planes.  

I'd like to see you fly a P-38 for a tour and see how well you do in it.  Since the Lightning is above your skill level in terms of flying, I will venture to say that you won't be very successful in it.  The P-38 is one of the more challenging planes to fly in the game, unlike the P-51D.


Sadly, if I had the time I would still fly in the KoTH but I don't and have had to give it up, along with scenarios.  I never had a complaint with how KoTH is or used to be set up, don't know why you mention that.


The above comment is priceless due to it's complete idiocy.

I never questioned you choosing to fly more than one plane...you're the one that has a hang up about it.  All I said is that you suck really bad in any plane you fly.  Again, just because I fly the Lightning in the MA doesn't mean I don't have experience in flying the other planes, I just choose not to fly them in the MA.  

I've offered you the chance to see for yourself but you keep tap dancing to avoid having to accept and lose.  Too bad, was really looking forward to beating you soundly in your "plane of expertise".

This still going?

So people fly the spit xvi, and others get killed by em - newbies need something they can get kills in, its quite simple - this game has a steep learning curve, if you kill the newbies in a ride they cant get kills in, it'll drive them away from the game and we all lose.

Who cares what plane they fly, it gives you someone to fight. If you get caught out by them, try again, get with a trainer to learn more acm etc etc etc.

As for vets in the 16 - meh, really cant see a problem - any plane can be beat.

I'm the worst pilot ingame ya know!!!

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.
