>>Its unrealistic, but more importantly it obliterates a huge piece of fun in discovering that the plane you just engaged isnt the run of the mill . <<

Who cares? Kill it because it's a Spit :D

So lemme get this straight, you think perk planes should be MORE common?

This was exactly the reason the perk system was created, to have LESS of those monster rides and more of rides that atleast have a small chance of fighting each other.

Although I agree, we shouldn't have to treat all 109s like they have the turn rate of the F and climb of the G10...

Perk the 190D9, 109G10, P51D, and La7.

Everyone of those 4 planes has an earlier model represented, and none of them are "that bad" in comparison.

I mean, the F4U-4 is the last of it's breed... same (sort of) for the SpitXIV... they both have earlier free planes available so why are the 109G10, 190D9, P51D and La7 getting a special over-look?

Perk 'em or the perk system is hypocritical.

Oh yeah, and to top it off... the La5 and La7 have different icons, so does the 202 (?!?!?!) and 205 (?!?!?!?!)

If the perk plane cost you wether you lived or died... the perk points would be penance.  As it is.. someone is just requesting that it be easier to hide a perk plane in the crowd.

Hooligan's quote pretty much nails it.

If you're going to fly a perk, you should have the gonads not to sneak around trying to get that c202 to underestimate you.
