I need to add to the list...and maybe put it right on top.....

last night I was fighting the gang and as typical they mostly just HO even 5 or more on just me....

so I get sick of it and remembering a plane I recently flew......

ok you suckers wanna HO...fine...lets play the Hoing game....

after I get to the fight...within a few minutes 5 HOers are now wondering why they flew face first and HOed a ME 410....

I mean c'mon gents...6 20mm and 1500 rounds of ammo....

yes please point your nose at me in your little 51.

I found my new rage plane.... :rofl

It is surprising the planes that will HO a Mossie.  Every single Me262 kill I have was scored in a Mossie that an Me262 did an HO with.

 :huh Who is dumb enough to ho a mossie, or anything for that matter, in 262?

Were there any extenuating circumstances, or did they just fly right into your guns?

KI61 is a beast, 2 very good nose mounted 20mms and 2 HE 50 cals. Turns very easly with every spit, climbs with most spits, can keep up with most spits and can carry 2 550lb bombs.

INK, try the 410 with mk103, they reach out and touch beyond pesky Hispano's range, and one bullet is enough for a wooden cross, even against 2-engined big fighters like Mossie.
against a Zeke, can you say "confetti" ?  :banana:

Problem with the 410 is they are made out of confetti and dead meat against ANY fighter. But yeah if you catch some Bombers you can toss basketballs at them from a safe range. The 410 was a let down, "then again it kinda was in real life too". But I did expect it to be a little tougher, more like an improved 110.

You'd be surprised who will gamble a HO with a mossie. On top of the numerous 262s and F4U-4s that died to a HO, I had Brewsters and KI-43s that tried to HO me. No extenuating circumstances either, come right at you even when the mossie is low, slow and BnZed by two other planes. Nothing you can do except laugh hard and pull the trigger...

I'm sure Save can tell you many stories about little nimble mg-armed planes that thought taking a 190A8 HO was a good idea.

Flew right into my guns.

They almost always get me too (once we were even both awarded a kill on the other), but given how much I dislike the effect an Me262 has on a fight I think sacrificing my 30 ENY Mosquito to kill a 200 perk point Me262 is worth it.

Yeah, I won't HO an Me410.  I don't like HOing and if I can kill something as easy as I can an Me410 without HOing it, why do so?  The fact that the Me410 is the only thing with a better air-to-air gun package than the Mossie just emphasizes that I shouldn't HO it.
