ENY rarely if ever affects the plane of choice for me.

Fly a plane on down the list and you wont have to be bothered by ENY.

I can't remember it affecting me either.  I also can't recall the ENY of the plane/planes I'm fighting affecting me.

It probably also helps that I generally base which team I fly on by choosing to fly for the team with the fewest players.

ENY never really affects me either, it's just that ENY is a big factor when gaining perks. If I shoot a N1K or a Spit16 down with a 110G or a Ta152, I think I deserve more than just 1.0 perk, sometimes even less. Some of the planes need to have their ENY changed because when compared to other planes, they are completely out matched yet gets more or less the same amount of reward for shooting another plane down.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

Once you quit worrying about perks and just fly, you will start building more.

If your worrying about perks your flying the wrong planes.

I rarely use perks, I don't worry about perks. I have over 30,000 perks. I know folks who have more.........................

Regarding the Spit14 vs the La7... compare.  Tell me what the Spit 14 can do that the La7 can not save for the few extra minutes of fuel.  Speed? Nope, La7 wins.  Firepower?  Nope, La7 wins.  Climb?  Nah, close enough to call equal. Ordnance? La7 wins again.  The Spit 14 really only truly out performs the La7 in terms of range... and that is questionable because once WEP is engaged the range/time of flight for the Spit 14 is drastically reduced to near La7 ranges.  
Hogwash

The Spit14 is faster than Lala over 15K (more so the higher you go) and it climbs better at all alts.  See this http://www.gonzoville.com/ahcharts/index.php?p1=spit14&p2=la7

My personal opinion is the Lala has crap cannons.  I would rather have the 20mm.50 combination.   If it wasn't for the perk, it would be my ride of choice when the vhorde hits....
