I feel there are some aircraft that could use a revaluation in their ENY.
Bf110G: Currently at ENY 10, but use has declined recently, in favor of planes like the P-47. Proposed ENY of 15-20
Brewster B239: Currently at 25, but since it out turns a zeke, has no handling gremlins to speak of, and holds E like nothing else, possibly an ENY of 10-15.
P-38J could be reduced from 20 to 15, since preformance is identicle to the L.
Raise ENY on the Ta-152 from 10 to 15.
Just an idea. Comments, opinions, thoughts? Go ahead, I'm in my flame bunker  :noid.

Do not let your opinions on an aircraft cloud your mind as to what it really can or can not do. 

The 100G-2 has an awesome amount of firepower and ordnance available to it.  No other "town killer" can do what it can.  Not to mention it is a devastating bomber hunter as well.  The ENY is fine, imo.  I agree %100 about the Brewster, it is far more capable than it current ENY, a new score of 15-18 wold be a better fit, imo.  The P38J is less capable than the P38L in terms of ordnance and "recovery", not to mention a better roll rate.  The J is a slightly better dogfighter according to the "experts", but the L is simply more capable. The Ta152 is one of the niche fighter/interceptors, it is one of the 2-3 best fighters at 28k or higher.  I say leave it as is.

Lol, 3 pilots scoring a bit over 60% of a plane's kills? Thats awesome.

With planes at the low end of the usage scale, this can happen very quickly. The Spitfire I has only 42 kills in this tour so far. A few sorties and you are top ace #1 in it. A good player can even boost such an "exotic" plane's total K/D by almost 50%. Been there, done that ;)

I don't doubt it. Dedicated C202 pilot could probably get close to 90% of the aircraft's kills if he worked at it.
