Plane qualities you value the most

[Nash]

My gunnery blows...so:

1)Ammo load

[Karnak]

1:  Acceleration.
2:  Climb Rate.
3:  Speed.
4:  Manueverablity.
5:  Firepower.

e.g. Spitfire MkXIV

Sisu

[RAM]

1-Hi Speed, so you can dictate the RoEs
2-Good Hispeed handling
3-Good E retention
4-Decent climbrate
5-Snapshot punch

So, you guessed it, 190D9!!!!!
For now I have to stick with runstang, that lacks #5 but has excellent #s 1,2,3 and 4.

Fw190D9? Ta152H1? The truth is out there

"For our old cause keeps us together,
And our hatred is so precious not death or defeat can break it.
God willing, we shall this day meet that old enemy
Who has given us so many a good beating.
Thank God we have a cause worth Fighting for,
And a cause worth losing and a good song to sing."

Hmm, I would have to say...

1.)  Accelerate like a sceaming Pinto
2.)  Brake like a Mac Truck
3.)  Turn like an 18 wheeler
4.)  Gas mileage of a Ford Excursion
5.)  And last but certainly not least...Look
     as sexy as a 1977 Pacer.  Ummm

Predictable enough here

1 Manuverability

2 More Manuverability! (OK OK, call this one roll rate)

3 speed (under 10k is fine)

4 Good guns (min 2 20mm)

5 Ammo


Right now it's the spit,cough,hack,gag,kerFphIoeRoiE.

Soon I hope for the Zero's & other IJN AC.

Ohh for all you guys above.


Speed (won't save you if I'm saddled up d2 or have alt to dive)

Tough (may eat up more of my ammo,but leaves you slow for all the weight your carrying.)

Dive (is cool, fun to watch em lawndart, but not required here.)

High Speed Handleing (Sorry I'd rather have knife edge stall handleing)

Guns (don't work unless you can get them on me  

Ammo (yep, you;ll need lots!)

[tshred]

1. Extra engine to get home on
2. Extra vert stab and rudder

We already have it-P38!!

Avg in all other important categories. What more do you need?

ts

[Duckwing6]

1. Acceleration -> E fighting
2. Energy Retention -> E fighting
3. Highs speed handling -> E fighting
4. CLIMB ! -> E fighting
5. good roll rate -> who needs steeniking turn rates in the vertical  

Oh IMHO that#s the HOG .. 'xcpet 1, 2 and 4  

(note: guns don't hurt .. but ain't THAT important)

[Ripsnort]
