Yup.  As well as any red airplane overhead a capped field of ours.  Ho lamp is lit.

Considering that I usually fly 47s, I'll ho the crap out of anything I can't out perform... brewsters included (especially the brewsters  :mad:)

Oh.. another Brewster thread.
Amazing feat for a fighter that's actually one of the great victims of the LW arena.  ;)

All Brewsters must be killed without hesitation or mercy. Ho it, ram it, do whatever you want. Just kill it. Kill it with fire.

Me too!  Especially when I see all the pretty sparkles around one's cockpit when my high angle deflection shots meet it's twisty turns.

     awesome kill on 2 brews tonite, fighting a high spit14, killed him, then noticed 2 brews on a friendly's 6 at 1.5k below me. I rolled over and fired a burst to try and scare them of his six, and I was shocked to see one of my 20mm hit one of their cockpits and he explodes instantly ! I keep diving and get right on the other's six, he's fixated on the friendly, but at the last second he sees me and pulls straight up, I squeeze the trigger and pull hard as I can, as the black out clears.. im spiraling down in a stall right next to the Brew who now seems to be missing his tail  :)  I recover and fly home.

Two Brewsters and a Spit 14... that reminds me of something:

The only fighters having a worse a2a combat record in the LW arena are mostly used as bombtrucks. The Brewster has the worst combat record of all 'pure' fighters, with the Spit 14 not far behind

     a lot of people think the spit 14 is a fighter. I believe it designed purely as a bomber inceptor. all it really does well is climb. the torque makes it uncontrollable in any kind of low alt / lower speed turn fight.
   The Brew often surprises me, I think it's over modeled in AH. it certainly doesn't seem like the same plane I've read real life pilots hating on.

Guess what... it wasn't the same plane. :)

Yep the FAF pilots called the brewster 'the pearl of the sky' everyone loved its flight characteristics. It was flown well late to the war when it was completely outclassed in speed already, still it maintained a very high k/d ratio with the best airframe scoring 30+ kills.

Interesting post but I dispute your definition of what constitutes an awesome kill :old:

Brewster taking a mossie VI HO? I laugh hard as I evaporate him out of my way. Only thing funnier is a KI43 attempting the same feat.

Anyone who attempts to HO a A8 deserves what he gets. 

When did the A8 become the new Niki?  I must have missed that memo.  :headscratch:

I ho all Brewsters just out of General principle. It could be a 10 v1 in my favor the brew is getting ho'd. Its not a question of is it the best plane in the world, or if its over modeled or if it's one of the biggest victims out there. The Brewster gets ho'd all day erryday

Just add LaLas to that, and you got my priority list for MA targets. 

Buffs < slow fighters < fast fighters < UFOs

Against I16s and IL2s. Not La5s and Yak9us.

The jihad action with the P-38s is an obomination!    :furious

Actually you are mistaken. Brewster kept maintaining a high k/d against Yak-9s and La-5s aswell. Not as high as against I-16s and I1-53s for example but high nonetheless.
