Maybe I should come out of retirement, knock off the rust and mix it up with the A5.


That isn't even a "maybe."  Hope to see you soon.

With work I travel tooo much! But, once a month or so I strap on the A5 and look for tards, turds and runners. Seems the Yak3 is the most popular these days, though overall still some good fights to be had.

Id say that im an average stick who leverages the strength strength of the k4.

57/4 is by no means an average score. Let me ask you a question in the spirit of the OP: would you accept a much lower score and be a way above average stick?

109K 59-5
F4U-1c  30-0
F6F 58-14
Me 262 80-2
P-47D25 60-3
Spit 14 22-3


That is one of the fundamental issues of topics like this on the AH forum: Guys that are basically the definition of 'top pilots' calling themselves 'average'. That's going to skew the discussion and conclusions a lot. Just because there are still some better pilots out there doesn't make you average. Remember, the truly average sticks wont even get a sustained K/D of 1.

And "leveraging the strenght of the K4" (and of other planes) is also exactly what begins to distinguish the top pilot from the average ones.

I'm not saying this is the case - I have no data. There is of course another way to get such a score. See OP.
