What?!?!  A self-proclaimed LuftWeiner who has troubles getting kills in a 190 or 109?!?!  Say it isnt so!!  I thought only the most talented pilots flew those hard planes and therefore should have no problems killing in them because of their evident superiority.   :rolleyes:

What's funnier is that the people who are most vocal about their quarrels with the N1K2 also fly it when they are frustrated.

The plane is so whacked out, I would never fly it online. What do I mean? I took it offline and managed to hold the nose up until it hit 0MPH. All the time I had control of the plane, the plane went into a stall/spin for one revolution and immediately corrected itself while exiting from this stall/spin. It was at 120MPH after dropping 500ft and had pulled itself out of the dive.

Even a Pitts can't do that. Anyways, I can't stand the plane and have never flown it. But the ones who remind us every day of every week how screwed up the plane is or this or that end up getting half their kills in it every tour.

The double-standards and irony is so thick here, you could use it as syrup on your pancakes.

Zygote, Tac, Grunherz... I forget the rest of the names, but I'm sure in some other N1K2 threads I could be refreshed rather quickly.

The "half of kills" was an exaggeration (in some cases), but they definitely take 'em up for more than A spin.

I didn't mean to sound like I was implying anyone in particular, just that I was implying some people do like to play both sides of the field.

Lol I've had 8 sorties in the N1K this tour, killed 1 chog, b17's, a lanc and N1K's only.

All uber planes.

Am 6:0 my favour in N1K vs N1K, and have a total of 18 kills in N1K.  And I use it a lot lol  :)

All up I have 538 kills?

that means 520 kills were obtained in other AC?

Get your facts straight b4 you start naming names m8

I spend more time in the George and Zero than almost every other member of my squad all put together, I love German planes, but I hate flying theam, Except the 109F4, and the JU 88, I Use the George to vulch in, better ammo load out, I pick planes to fill the mishion requirement, I fly the P 38 a lot because of the ordance load out for atack mishions. I m in a German squad because of my Historical interest in German aircraft, I am a fan of AXIS aircraft in general, I love the 205 I just havent used it much this tour. I intended to make more use of the Ki 61,I change favorate mounts every few weaks or so a couple tours ago I hardely had any kills in the George,tour before last I had a ton of kills in the Zero,I prefer Japanese plane in general because I like to turn fight not Zoom and Boom (my favorate thing is to kill Georges with a Zero :) )

 So what if I am in a German squad and fly other Axis planes........

BTW the main reason I've been taking N1K up is to figure out how the bloody thing does what it does and also to kill N1K's.  I've also done this with the spitfire, p51 etc <- planes which I'd normally never fly because they don't suit my style of flying, but it's good to know what they can do and what their limitations are, I would have done this offline yes, but I could'nt get the drones to cooperate   :D

notice how all the little self proclaimed "superhptmn.'s" from stafenknobgoblin are very defensive? LOL.   I guess giving yourself "rank" tho is a mild jump from simply proclaiming you are the "best sticks"  in the most "poorly modeled planes".  

Oh... and I am of Scottish extraction so I am indeed..... A pale blue color.

Simple solution is too look at the stats, gents, that'll tell you who flies what, and their performance in those planes,   :D

LOL hazed, I am all for flying whatever you like, I do. But its the guys that gripe and complain in thread and even create anti N1K threads and are flying the things  ;) Not only are they vocal about the thing and complain that the FM is porked but they also fly all the "super birds" like the La7 and the F4U-C, I point to those guys  :) Its just plain funny, and hypocritical  :)

However I do not lump all of them together, just the ones that gripe and moan.

"Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

Psalm 37:1-3
"

So your sayin that the buffs will get be fixed in 1.08?

So, I guess that means that you are better than me because you are a LuftWhiner?  Ouch...that really hurts.  I think I am gonna go slit my wrists now or something.   :rolleyes:
