F6f vs. P-47d11

[-ammo-]

I eat Mossies for lunch

At MA altitudes (i.e., low) - the F6F hands down.



Both are super-cool planes, so there is no decisive coolness factor to tip the scale either way.

have to disagree there , the jug doesnt come in blue

Yes it does..



Maybe not the D11 but there are plenty of blue jugs. 

[Redd]

ok I stand corrected - they are both cool

[Widewing]

F6F is a better turning plane, while the jug dives better.

F6F has the win unless the pilot lawn darts.

The Jug doesn't dive better. The P-47s compress at a lower speed (Mach 0.73 vs Mach 0.75). Dive acceleration is virtually the same.

F6F hands down is the better bird 

[Mister Fork]

Yikes.  I agree with BaldEagl.  It isn't even close.

And to add insult to injury, the Jug accelerates like a slug.  All the F6F has to do it turn on WEP and catch up and eat the Jug for breakfast.  Both are pretty big targets, but the F6F is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

In the MA, I've turned with La La's, Spits, and Zero's in a F6F and managed to splash about everything that came at me. And it could take a beating when it was more than 1 vs 1 and keep on fighting.  Pretty durable plane - its a real gem in the right hands.

Mmmmmmm  F6 BUUUUUT the jug has super secret powers.

Last time I faced a P47 in a F6 was against Zach during a little DA action.  We collided and our burning wreckage spun to the earth.

Yeah but the F6 probably looked better on the way down. 

[Changeup]

F6f all day long.

Because vis in the F6F is so awesomesauce! lol.  The vis in the F6F is soo bad...Dodger lives longer in a LA7 on the deck with FULL FLAPS deployed than he does in the F6F (he's one of the best F6F guys in the game).  If that doesn't tell you vis is a problem that will cause death, I don't know what will!!

I don't have much of a problem with the vis in the F6 anymore. With the right views the blind spot isn't really that big.

Btw Changeup, i'll be in the DA for a while if you want your rematch.

I'll be on later tonight if you are going to be on.  I have:

1.  Kids baseball (last tourney)
2.  Steak to grill (Kabobs marinated with zucc, squash, tomatoes, onions and brocc)
3.  Watch LSU beat A&M because Johnny "wad" Football blows
4.  Get the Christmas stuff out of the attic so the family can be ready to attack it immediately after Thanksgiving.

Im thinking 930CDT
