Do you fly 1 plane 99% of the time?

I fly the:
 
109 f-4 most the time (mid to high alt)
110 g2 for Jabo
ki-61/a6m/yak 9u (low alt)


style of flying especially in this map is to take off with 50% fuel and drop tanks cruise around chilling looking for interesting 1v1, buff formations or Noob's in Uber rides (easy to spot) so I can Harvest more perkies :D

There's other planes besides the P-38?

Ever since I've started playing online flight sims, 99.9% of the time was spent in the P-38.  No other plane holds my fascination like the P-38 does, so I don't really see a reason to fly any other fighter.

Because it's fast and sexy, no other reasons really.

I fly LA7 most of the time because it's challenging.

I'll fly anything that seems like fun to fly.  I'll also spend a lot of time in the ride I expect to fly in TOD, when I know what that is.

I tend to have one plane each tour that I end up spending the vat majority of my time in.  That being said I tend to have phases where I favor one plane over another... for a long long long long time it was the P51D, then the P51B came along and I flew that.  Then I switched to LW rides for a spell and flew the 190a5 and 109F a lot.  Then it was my blue period where I fell in love with the hellcat and spent time in Corsairs.  Then last tour it was back to the 51 for the month and now I'm back in the F6F again.  My trends tend to follow whatever books I'm reading at the time.  Last month I was re-reading To Fly and To Fight for the 12,000th time.  This month I seem to be reading "Hellcat" by Barret Tillman a lot, go fig.  :)

90% of the time I am in a Jug. I fly it for a couple of reasons. First off I have always liked it because it has all the things I would want in a combat aircraft. Plenty of fire power, a heavy bomb load and most of all survivability. It's also one hell of a challenge to fly in the MA. If your SA is not top notch you will soon be creating a large hole in either the grond or the water. It is also very conducive to having a wingman so you have plenty of chances to develop wingman tactics with other jug pilots. Gine the Jug a try, I will guarantee you it will make you a better pilot.

9% of the time I am in a P-38. Just because I like it as a turn fighter.

1% of the time I am other aircraft, most notably the Yak 9T or a Hurri IIC if I an defending a field under heavy attack.

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!

You're just having some bad luck. Stick with the B-pony, it'll turn around for you. At 25k and higher, it will fly rings around many of the so-called "Uber" rides.

My F6F-5 Hellcat is IMO the best plane out there. It can outrun mostly anything in a dive. It has 6 x 50 cal with 2400 rounds of ammunition, which is a TON of ammo. It can outturn almost everything in the game w/ exception to Hurri, A6M, and Niki. It is IMO one of the best overall fighters in the game. It definately could hang with pretty much every plane in the MA. It could turnfight the best of Spit pilots. If could do reversals on 51's, 190's, 47's, and 109's that try to B n Z it. It has pretty good views. If you are looking for a good overall plane, try out the F6F-5. You just have to be careful not to get in the low and slow situations, but even then the F6F could sometimes come outta it. I have come in a fight about 17K and b n zoomed until I knew I had the speed to go in there and I come out with 10 kills or whatever. Once in a while that happens, most of the time I get screwed by a niki or LA7 that just comes along and gets on my 6. But this is getting kinda long, so I will stop writing. to all!
