D-25 had a 1.89 k/d ratio last month......largest group of victims was P51. Interestingly.....a SINGLE kill of  'Gunner' was recorded...HOW did that happen?

Recently started flying the D25 and have to say I probably killed the K/D it would have been far over 2.

Honestly it is not a easy plane.

It doesn't matter. As long as you work on it and understand what it can do, you will get better.

How many of you guys experienced the gas tank fire? Sometimes I think our 47s were produced at the Mitsubishi plant.

This is a rare occurrence that can happen if you kill a bomber with an additional gunner aboard. I have this every few months.
Arena wide, it happened only 1519 times in 2011.
