Biggest "crutch" plane of AH

[Pawz]

38s I'm so freaking tired of getting picked by them. I mean at least they look good but looks don't count.

Correct unless they have perfect T and A and then that's all that counts.

Having recently given the P-39 a try, I will say it's not as terrible as I once though. Given an opportunity, it can be a killer.


Thank god it's entirely incapable of forcing an opportunity. Flying it has renewed my zeal in opposing the P-63.

if they wont add the p63 then i vote for removal of the ta-152 yak3, la5n!,3 Gun La7, P47M

That is a weird list you have.  I can see how you relate the Ta152, P-47M and 3 gun La-7 to the P-63, but the presence of the Yak-3 and La-5FN breaks the mold. F4U-1C, C.205, Brewster, Ostwind, Wirbelwind, Me163 and, heck, the Spitfire Mk IX fit the mold much better than do the La-5FN and Yak-3.  Or glzsqd's Spitfire Mk XVI.  Those last three were produced and used in the thousands compared to the low hundreds or less of the others.

Lol, I just hate the Spit16

I flew it a few times this week and I don't understand how anyone can ever lose while flying it.

I look forward to see your stats in "the plane you can't lose in" after flying it for a full tour

Fly it for a tour. Its not a miracle plane and does have weakness just like the other spits. I always thought that people that complain about late war plane "low eny" could always fly mid war or early war. Problem solved and their wouldn't be a need to squeak about being killed because you made a decision to fly a p40e...

It makes me depressed flying it for a day . Can I fly the Spit 1 instead?

Let me know when the Early and Mid war have anyone in them .

My comments on the Spit16 are tongue-n-cheek, I'm well aware of its weakness's(Sub-par top speed, Fragile wings, Unstable low speed handling, etc etc)

Why don't you fly the P-40E for a whole tour, so you can properly compare it with all the "weaknesses" of the Spit XVI?

I second this motion! *bangs gavel until it breaks*

Back when the spit16 was first introduced, sonic22 and I tested it with duels and use to do 3 full emmilmans from the start as we tangoed. We couldn't believe its performance but those fights were incredibly fun!

In November 2005, tour 70 (along with the Spit VIII and the 109G-14)
