Unperk the F4U-4
« on: September 10, 2012, 08:24:34 PM »
I was fighting in a furball, and our carrier planes were being owned by P51Ds, LAs, 109s, just give the carrier pilots an equalizer. I mean , to get BnZed as soon as you take off beacouse your f4u1a because it cant stay up with the p51ds is horrible. Just saying.

I realize this may be difficult to grasp but, you could climb away from the fight, or spiral climb over your CV ack...

You have no equalizer?  What about the scourge of AI puffy ack blanketing the airfield your carrier is docked at?
The ones doing the BnZing are the 10k Corsairs because the enemy can't go over 3K without getting ganged by puffy.  :rolleyes:

Hawkeye, instead of taking up something that flies like a brick when low and slow (even if you use the flaps), take up something more nimble, grab as much alt as you can before being engaged, and sucker em into your fight, reduce their E advantage, and keep em turning n burning, you can eventually get clear of them to gain alt to engage more.

The seafire is a nice plane as well as the zero. Both are more than capable to clear the space over the cv. Once clear, THEN you up your hogs.

Caldera was talking about the AA on the CV Task Group.

And if you are saying that they were too far out for the ship's AA, then I'm not sure what your complaint is.
