Biggest "crutch" plane of AH

[JOACH1M]

I honestly think the A6M is the "crutch" plane of aces high.


What do you think?

[Meatwad]

Crutch like useless or like shoot a few parts off it and laugh while it flops around until it crashes?

[KCDitto]

What crackes me up is when you see one at 30K

Must of took all night to get that high just to dive on me and loose all your wings on the way down   

[guncrasher]

the 109 most players all they know how to do is try to rope.  once they lose their e then then whine about getting picked.

 Hmm...it's a toss up between the P-51 and La-7 as in: "....Oh-oh, I'm in a bind. I better hit the deck and run!"

or like "it's so easy a caveman can do it"

But isn't that the 190's job to run, given its really limited elevation abilities?

At least the 51's and La's have SOME effort to try and turn.

But that's why I love the 109, it's incredibly satisfying to shoot somebody down by roping them out, after being stuck down on the deck by them attempting to do the same to you.

NO contest, LA7 or Tempest

I think the Planes that fall at both ends of the spectrum are crutch planes....any caveman can out turn someone in a hurri or Brewster....any cave man can out run someone in a P51 or Dora.

Spit16... You can enter a 3v1, do everything wrong. and still win.

Id say the 4hog is too, but perked rides don't count

[Someguy63]

The Brewster, there is nothing that thing can't do.

[FBKampfer]

Spit 16, or Yak-3. Only aircraft I routinely get myself into trouble with.

[seano]

I'm starting to think the yak-3

the 190 is actually a great dog fighter. Not many people know how to really work it to its full ability.
