And is it hard to do what the D9 does badly with a spit9?
The D9, with its handicap of stall, is hard to out turn, out scissor, out do in any stall/airbraking/critical E retention in hard maneuvers with a plane that doesn't have that turn and stall handicap?
No one has a hard time out turning a P47 with a Yaku, a 152 with a spit9, an FM2 with an A6M2.
Not every D9 pilot will run from a 1/2/3/4:1 if caught slow.
Not every FM2 pilot will play it low and slow 100% of the time.
LW planes fly like pos? then what's the reason to call them easy to kill in?
Don't have much imagination to fly LW? How else, besides better timing, do you beat a plane that's without the brick handicap in the angles? Choices of reaction are limited, aren't the FM2 actions limited? turn or die?
You want to win a fight with the underdog plane, in every kind of fight?
If the D9 takes no imagination to BnZ the slower earlier planes, the spit5 doesn't take much to TnB the late war bricks.
The 152 is hard to survive and get kills in outnumbered, out stalled fights, for example against P51D, spit5, and another 152, all higher at engagement. What exactly does flying a 152 do to the pilot's brain that could not possibly happen in the brain of one flying an FM2? You think FM2 is difficult? if any plane is difficult it's the 202. No speed, no guns, no climb. you just get to play hamster wheel out evading and out turning most planes that slow down and then get assists for it.
Most players don't ride the edge of stall when needed to, they hang on about 10-20% less than you(general), so what's the challenge in pulling the stick harder than them in a plane of equal turning?
Take a modern japanese pure sports car and race it against a 70s muscle car, and tell the other guy hes got no challenge out of it because he's both nailing the apexes from better judgement and beating you at exit speed with more engine, both thanks only to his bigger displacement.
