Hi lazs,
Are you saying that you have beat me in every plane or that you could or ... that it doesn't matter?
I meant that I can probably beat you in any plane, and it doesn't matter. Probably more because I'm quicker than you than that I'm more experienced. It's the pilot that makes the plane work, not the plane that makes the pilot think.
you did claim that some planes are easy while insinuating that ones like the (LOL) dee 9 are difficult to master..
I said some planes are easy, and so did you. Just like you survive easily in the hard turns, I survive in the long fast sweeps, just like you die in long fast sweeps and BnZ snapshot plinks, I die in snail fights; there are only so many shortcuts to take to make up for inefficiencies. I understand that on a strictly 1:1 fight there will always be the advantage to just zoom out way easier than the general early war plane, but that doesn't mean I or anyone has to rely on that every time. Will you say you'd rather be in a D9 when there is a Typhoon, a P51D, and a P38 taking 1/2BnZ 1/2TnB turns at you having only barely 275mph on the deck when it's time to evade and counter their shot, rather than say an FM2?
you appear to think that all you need to do is pull hard on the stick and spray at things from 1.3 in planes like the fm2 or spit 5
you don't kill things at 1.3 just like that, i just meant some planes have more potent reach than others, hence the difference in potent tactics.
So yes, all you need to do is pull harder without losing control(and this is obviously the hardest thing for most pilots), to follow what's not 100% of stall capacity maneuvers isn't a rock-paper-scissors type of thing, you're actually watching the other guy and can predict a bit or a lot what's going to happen next and then adjust where you want to be accordingly. The guy turns, you turn, he turns harder, you try harder to get the angle, one figure or another is all the same, trying to get faster or slower than him, one or two or ten steps later, either way. No brainer after a few tours, you might not have the experience to react instantly to new tactics, but the logic is there already.
One-upping the other guy with a better plane is as legal as one-upping him with better tactics. Bragging about beating him with an altogether lesser plane is as legit as about beating him with an altogether better plane that does worse what the lesser plane does better.
anyway, same owner same dog, same pilot same plane.
