Main rides:  Everything but the 202/205/Yaks  <<
Dweeb rides:  No such thing.  My view of a Dweeb ride is totally based on the people who create the Dweeb-Ride idea in the first place.  In other words,

..there are Dweebs, but the plane itself has little to do with it.  All attitude.

There is only the P-51.

All other planes are actually incapable of flight.  They are just so damn ugly the earth repels them.

Fly what ever plane you like, as for "dweeb planes", there is no such a thing really (Though the 200 spits can get a little annoying lol ), If you don't like a plane just don't fly it, learn its weaknesses/strengths and shoot it! :)

I suggest you fly all planes, learn how they handle&what they do best and choose the 1 that you like.

If you want a challenge try early war planes like F4u-1 (my favorite :D ) val,a6m2 & P40 will also be interesting to fly, Especially val, cant wait to try out a fixed gear plane.... just that much closer to a biwinger! :D

lol, i'll bite, too:

Main ride:

your 6 after you miss the HO.. buck harder, i like a rough ride!!

Dweeb rides:

HO's
Runners
hordemonkey Gangers
ack bunnies


i'm not afraid to engage 1 or 2 no matter the situation my advantage or not - one gets better by trying and doing.

i realize people have different motives for playing, but the ones with the above dweeb rides are the ones i look down at, and even then only "vets" who continue to fly dweeb rides. newbies are as newbies do and they learn by watchng what established players do.

Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
I'm not perfect, but I am closer to it than you are.

That's exactly what I find so amusing - categorizing and complaining about dweeb planes.


reminds me of that quote from Haley Joel Osmond in Sixth Sense

"I see dweebs. They're all around me  - some of them don't even know they are dweebs"


or something along those lines

Main Rides:

 Me 109 G10
 Fw 190 D
 F4U-D/C (carrier and jabo first option)
 A6M5
 also other american planes like P38, P47, Hurri(*) as jabo.
 

Rides for dweebs:
 
 Spit V
 Spit IX
 La 7  
 


Hurri is a panzer and pt killer machine. If you need perks, kill pt's with hurri. Usually 3 pt's kills = + 10perks.

Yep, was my first thought about this thread too.

Great old skit..... very applicable too.

JU88 and TBM are the only Manly rides in this game.

All others are merely singing falsetto.

I just think it is tragic that HTC has modeled all of these planes that no one should ever fly, but we the consumer can take matters into our own posturing hands and ostracize those unfortunate noncompliant pilots suffering from the illusion of an ability to fly what they like.


Why preferably Spanish?
Please dont put in the same bag all Spanish only cause a couple of them, too biased, are who usually post here.
There are many more who think different and dont show arround here.
I find your way to ask this as an intended despise.
Even some had bit the hook :D
