Me262 should be off the paper at the bottom, so charts wrong again  :D

Off the paper in the B&z category.  I have a difficult time calling a plane ez mode that not many people can be successful in though.  :banana:  :neener:

I asked you honestly earlier to help me devise some sort of fair experiment or tracking of stats to establish your EZ mode as a real quantifiable thing.  Do you have any ideas?  Otherwise we are still in the land of subjective opinions.  Your original argument lacks any credibility, and smacks of dislike for certain plane types that are not your preference.  I'll give this up to you being stubborn and hard-headed soon, as your arguments keep coming back to labeling and name chucking.  It bores me.

Its not really a stat-definable thing. I think they're planes that, as the name would suggest, are easy (in a relative sense) to fly, and easy to be reasonably succesfull in combat in.

For example, the 190A5 can be one of the most deadly planes in the game when flown correctly, but it takes someone better than the average spit stick to make it shine.

Same is true for the 109K, the A8, the Ta-152, the P-39, the P-40, P-47, etc.

Inversly, the spit 16 doesn't require you to fly it in any paticular style, or require you to do or avoid anything in paticular. Same is true for the P-51, the N1K, the Brewster, etc.

See what I'm talking about?

You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

If you're below the Mendoza Line, you fly an EZ mode airplane and should probably reevaluate your entire existence.  Cheers.  :devil

damn all this animal killing in one thread... you better hope PETA doesn't find out about this.

Yes...I may not fly very well but with a rifle? If you run, you'll only die tired.

... so you'll miss your shots and bag me because I die of exhaustion?
