Just our of interest, was wondering what the general opinion is on who the best Typhoon sticks are out there in the MA these days.

I guess numero uno has to be Vulcan.  There used to be a k/d & total kills chart by one of the AKs that used to chart the success of Tiffy pilots (among other rides).

Orel was the first and one of the best tiffie drivers I've run into.

Vulcan's a pain in the arse - if I see a tiffie at 20k I assume it's him. ;)

I've always managed to get lots of kills in it.  I like the tiff and it seems to like me too. Flew it LOTS tour 29 and managed 3.7:1 k:d. (331:89).

Orel is a good tiffie pilot, haven't seen him for a long time since he joined knits.  I used to fly the tiffie quite a bit but i've been flying spits more and more lately.  Hmmm....i may start flying the tiffie more often- i think i'm starting to miss the speed demon.:)
