Btw, I just pwned you all on the deck in my K4 in this thread.

LOL you've gone classic cartoon fighter pilot in this one Grizz.  Historically, fighter pilots of any country tend to minimize the capability of their ride, while proclaiming the uber and easiness of the other guys ride so when they defeat that other guy, it makes them feel that much better in having done so.

The difference with the real fighter pilots is they didn't have a choice to fly the other guys easy/uber bird.  In the end we do :)

Corky my list is very objective mmkah?  I cut the bs and I made a beautiful venn diagram for the toon world to see and learn from.  I know you agree with me and are just playing ambassador/bliss ninny which is why everybody loves you.  :salute

It has more to do then I just can't get worked up about it.  I much prefer to see guys in Spits, N1KS and 109s as they tend to mix it up.  Even the Corsair drivers are willing to bend the bird a bit.  To me, with the way I play, the easy mode guys are in 262s, 51s, D9s, Tempests etc hanging up high, and blowing through the fight that someone else is having.

But I've been reminded many a time, that it's their dime, and I just have to live with it :)

The Spitfire was such a good short range fighter in WW2 because of exactly what it does here.  It's forgiving, does most everything well and gives lower time pilots a chance to survive.  The guys flying it for real back when lives were one a piece felt the same way about it.

When I run into Spits I seem to do ok against most folks in it.  There is a huge difference between running into a guy who knows what he's doing and the average AH pilot.  In that it gives the average pilot the confidence to get into a fight and to start learning to bend a cartoon fighter makes it much more of a preferable ride to me, then the Mustang for example.  Most guys never learn how much a Mustang can do, because they hop in them new and only learn to fly it high, fast and straight.

This is why I love the 51. Almost everyone I fight thinks I'm going to run. By the time they realize I am actually fighting them, they have lost. I don't give a rats behind if people think its EZ mode. If it makes people feel better about themselves after getting killed, that's cool. I don't fly for others approval or pats on the back. i tend to talk crap in the heat of the moment, but honestly, I don't care what anyone flies. It's their 15 bucks and if they wanna fly a spit16, so be it. I will fight them in my 51 anyway. Some planes are harder to fly than others, but once you have learned what they can and cant do, you have hurdled over the learning curve, and each planes quirks become meaningless. All that matters after that is how it performs on the edge. Some planes ARE harder to learn than others, but with enough time any monkey can overcome the learning curve, and then apply their experience, gunnery, and knowledge of ACM, which is what makes the plane dangerous. Thats just my 2 cents.

You were actually mentioned earlier in this thread by name, in a good way.  Not sure which page though.  Gluck.  :lol
