Aside from the Spit V, I believe the Spit IX was the second most produced variant of the Spitfire (Dont have my Books off hand)

I dont touch Spitfires. I hate them. And I hate fighting the Hordes of Spitfires in the MA. But on the other hand, I dont see any good reason on perking the Spitfire Mk IX. I hate the fact that I see them al the time, but hey, thiers no point of complaining. Kill em!

I dont like the idea of perking an a/c just because its used the most in the MA. What would happen if the Spit IX was perked at 8 points, just like the CHOG? do you actually think the Spit IX numbers would go down? I dont think so.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

mostly a d9 or a g2.

fyi today for example I upped there was 3 spits overhead my squadmate Steve74 showed up I was in a g2. The spits just kept break turnin everytime I was on there 6 I would go up turn 'round they would do it again after a few times I shot 2 down.

Spits used to frustrate me with there loopin but they end up so slow that just keepin the pressure on they can not do a thing.

Now it wasn't like I fightin AlgyFT or leviathan but still its more a matter of technique then skill. Oh......ya need to kill them if you commit aggressively. Poor gunnery or being trigger shy gives them an opportunity to reverse.

Anyway I am at best mediocre all the guys that posted in this thread could whoop me handly.

Evidence of what?  If you can't see how common the Spit is by spending 5 minutes flying in Aces High...you aren't looking.

IF the Spit were to be perked, it would be only because of the amount of them buzzing around the MA all the time.  Spits are hardly worth perking because of thier capabilities.  I seriously doubt Spits will ever get perked, there HAS to be a couple planes with training wheels attached or HTC might lose buisness lol.

Maaan.... I want to brag too!  

Urchin has this many kills against the Spits in this tour:

Spit 9:10 and 2 (died in Panzer and M8)
Spit5: 6 and 1 (died in a PT boat)
Seaspit:7 and 0

I do good against spits too :D.  

Don't perk them, I'd lose a whole ton of kills.

How bout lowering the OBJ value
« Reply #11 on: February 24, 2002, 10:02:58 PM »
I believe its set to 18. Right?

How bout lowering all the mid/late war monsters OBJ value.

First unperk the CHOG. Then lower the OBJ value for them all.

N1K2-J
Spit Mk IX
P-51D
La-7
Fw-190D-9
F4U-1D and C
Bf-109G10
P-47D-30

lower them to 10 or lower.

And then raise thier ENY value so If you shoot one down in a 109F-4 (hehehe) you will be duelly rewarded.

This would make early war planes more popular. Like I said I dont like the idea of perking an a/c becuase of it's usage, escpecially the side effect's of the perking. And If the reason the F4U-1C perking is because of actual numbers in WW2, then i stand corrected.

note: I may have confused the OBJ and the ENY value.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

...second start the endless "perk hogc" campaign here again :)

Spit IX shall not be perked. Can't understand why people ask to perk so slow plane. Name it Spit XIV, give it Spit XIV fm, and perk it then to like 70 perks :)

If they brought the Spit XIV to Aces High and did NOT perk it (and considering the love of Spits I can see that happening)...HTC may as well change the name to Spits High.  I'd be SO gone.

There is no reason is should be perked
« Reply #14 on: February 24, 2002, 11:31:14 PM »
We have several cannon only birds.

Why are we keeping the CHOG perked, first of all its a corsair, second we have a F4U4. It makes absolutley no sense at all.

Look at the stats, It shows very little use of the F4U-1C, In my oppinion its not a spectacular aircraft and we have a more manueverable cannon armed bird (N1K-2J) and by far it's easier to fly.

The Spitfire IX should not be perked. The C-HOG should be un-perked. And Certain planes should have thier OBJ lowered. (And one of those "certain planes" would be Spit Mk IX) ;)
