K4 looks like a sex toy with planks stapled on. Probably drawn up by a lousy H.R Giger imitator :ahand


P40 is the best plane.

This is coming from the one that fancy's the P40.

Looks like the designer for that plane had a seizure while making a sketch.

Your plane is only best for shooting at trucks and jeeps, K4 adds beauty to air combat.

  To get back to the topic, I am a persistently mediocre fighter pilot However i am better than when I started. What made me better: enter furballs to work on views and SA, go faster, offline mission to improve aim.

This is a beginner list. I wish the offline missions worked as the one called "endurance" really helped my aim through repetition and the abundance of targets, unfortunately you could only fly f6 and none of it works anymore. Aim is still my biggest weakness and if you don't have the knack it is hard to get better.

I guess if I had to give only one bit of advice, it would be SA is likely the single most important thing to work on after you've got the basics.  Over the years, I've found every single improvement I've made to my game has resulted from noticing more of both what my plane is doing as well as what my opponent's plane is doing.

Concentrate on judging how fast the bandit is going, whether he's gaining or losing speed, whether the angle he's coming in on allows him to get a shot, or if you're in the clear and can start the transition into your next maneuver.  Compare films and watch what it shows versus what you thought the situation was.

If I were allowed more than one tip, then it would expand to gunnery is critical, so is flying 'smooth'.

If you think you are having a 1v1 in the Main Arena, your SA has failed you.

Putting yourself in the position for a shot without the ability to aim is worthless. Aim is the single most important skill you can have in a dogfight.
Example. You without the knowledge of better angle shots vs you with the knowledge of better angle shots.

Are you telling me that if 2 people have the exact knowledge of aim the one who sets up better (high percentage) shots isn't going to do better?

I understand what you saying about people like Hoagi. I acknowledge there are people with zero knowledge of anything but flying directly at a red guy and running directly from the next. But his aim will never get better, until he puts himself in positions for higher percentage shots or...he ups a 410 and goes buff hunting.
