,he gets a discount of cost of a perk ride. alot of achievements are for early or midwar planes.

 The P-40C is actually already being THE dominating plane in the EW stats, and it's easy to figure out why. Give discounts for perk rides by having lots of kills in EW or MW planes, and you will see what happens...  :noid

With a more extreme ENY scaling, we would probably end up with more perks for the 'better' pilots, which would benefit most from it. \

This is the best reason in favor of it yet offered on this thread.

 With higher ENY values for 'lesser rides', I would have to spend less time in them and can spend more time in the Me 262, Me 163 and Tempest. You really want that?  :old:

I don`t have a problem with that if I also am earning perks faster. You have shown repeatedly, via statistics, that most everyone reading this bbs is relatively "elite". You have shown compelling logic in arguing that this change would mostly benefit this "elite". Therefore, you have convinced me ;)

Keep thinking.  A good idea is rarely thought by all.

If AH staff were to pull rides that had little or no use in the late war, a lot of the high ENY would be locked in midwar.  I think they don't do that so one can experience most any ride he or she wants with the exception of the biplanes.

As a side thought on how get the hanger queens out, the torpedo planes might get more use if AH had a good way to train a person on their use or even  better let the offline green cross hair come into play on the torpedo runs. The bombers have their semi automated system why not the torpedo planes.

The P39D has surpassed the P-40C now that WWIIluv has shot  down AngryBrd in B-25s 38 times even though he has 16 kills on AngryBrd in the P40C.

One of the better ideas posted on this board.
Mosquito VI - twice the spitfire, four times the ENY.

I fly f4f all the time and do pretty well with it. Yet I'm still always starving for fighter perks and I'm ranked 26th in fighter kill points lol. Damn my 262 addiction (it's a real disease with doctors and medicine and everything).

A Hurricane Mk I gets 1.33 perks for shooting down a Mosquito Mk VI.  A Mosquito Mk VI gets .75 perks for shooting down a Hurricane Mk I.

A Hurricane Mk I gets 8 perks for shooting down a P-51D.  A Mosquito Mk VI gets 6 perks for shooting down a P-51D.


The Hurricane Mk I does 260mph on the deck, 316mph at best alt, climbs at about 2800fpm, has ~25 minutes of internal fuel, has below average visibility, has eight .303s with 334rpg, suffers from a float carburetor, but turns well. Cannot carry external ordnance. ENY 40

The Mosquito Mk VI does 357mph on the deck, 384mph at best alt, climbs at about 3700fpm, has 68 minutes of internal fuel, has good visibility, has four Hispano Mk II 20mm cannons in the nose with 175rpg and four .303s with 780rpg but doesn't turn very well. It can carry 2,000lbs of bombs or 1,000lbs of bombs and eight rockets. ENY 30.

P-51D does 367mph on the deck, 437mph at best altitude, climbs at about 3500fpm, has ~60 minutes of internal fuel, has excellent visibility, has six .50s with ~400rpg, but doesn't turn very well.  It can carry 2,000lbs of bombs and six rockets. ENY 5.


40, 30 and 5.  Does that seem right?

You're right. The Mossie should be around 15 ENY.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.
