Plane Weights
« on: August 03, 2011, 04:53:57 PM »
Is there a list that shows plane weights in one list (as opposed to going through each and every plane stats)?

Thanks.  :salute

No, no comprehensive list. You can make your own cheat sheet based on your most-flown rides. Generally the weight is only an issue or a benefit when trouble shooting something or trying to work something out mathematically. It doesn't really play into your everyday usage (probably hence why there are no lists -- nobody needs/wants 'em!).

Sorry I can't be of more help.


EDIT: The weight of the plane DOES play into every day usage, but not down to the pound... Only in as much as your loadout changes the weight so you change the hangar loadout to get the desired performance you want. I.e. you take 50% on a P-47N instead of 100%, or you fly a 190A8 with just 2 guns instead of 4. So it DOES play a role, but the exact weight isn't as important as knowing the end result of that weight when you choose from the hangar.
