I havent played ah2 yet so I cant really decide. But I do know planes that I want to try out first. Like p38L,F6F,FW190D-9,and the BF109g-10. For some reason I just have urges to fly those planes first. want about you guys?
-
HTC took my La7 away!!!! Waaa! ;)
-
My favorite is Ki-84-I-Ko.
-
Ki-84 is nice!

P-51B
-
Yak-9U
-
the one i just shot down.
:D
-
P-47D Thunderbolt
Unless it's squad night.
Then it's the F4U Corsair.
-
Either of the Yak-9s.
The Yak-9U had the best combination of speed/maneuvering in the game (IMO of course), although the weak guns (1 ShVAK and 2x .50s) and limited ammo are a turn-off for most players.
The Yak-9T is just funny. It handles well at higher speeds, but doesn't have enough horsepower to keep it up (so it's a bit of a bobsled, great downhill, but you have to push it back up) The funny part is the 1 ping kills of pretty much any fighter in the game (due to the 37mm elephant gun). It only has 32 rounds of ammo, but remember, it only takes one round to get a kill lol.

Spit 5 is my favorite, but if ya REALLY wanna play well, you
should start with a P-40. Just let me know when your online
and where your flying out of
(j/k about the 40..don't use it)
-
p38.. used to be really good with it but ah1 closed down and havent played since. so i bet i lost my skill with it hehe
-
109F4 or G2, great planes with a little work involved also :) Plus how can you pass on the great skins for them?
-
AH1: Mosquito Mk VI
AH2: To Be Determined
-
Hellcat
-
Thunderbolt
"I like 'em big 'n bold" :cool:
-
F4U-1 :aok
-
P47 D25 and FM2
-
109G-10 or 110G-2
Hehe speed is life.:aok
-
Honestly, so far the Hurricane IId... its fixed and its awsome. Fly right at tree top level looking for GV's then when you find one fly over it and pull up into the verticle and kick her around then back down. 4 or 6 rounds of 40mm into the turret is all it takes. :D
-
spit(any) hurricane, typhoon, mossy and tempest..in that order..
RAF are best
-
P40 and P38.

sure hope it turns and rolls better.... when i turned stalll limiter off in 38 i found out i can do alot more with it and actually compete against nme fighters lol
-
SBD. Most fun plane to fly.
-
I'm with Sikboy, Yak9T is more fun than a barrel of monkey's.
You can vulch the vulchers with it, you can strafe the CV's with it. Its possible the single best ack killer of the planeset. (1 shot, = 1 ack dead)
Its good for base defense especially vs Carrier when the cons are coming in low and hvy. Ecellent LVT & PT killer.
It RULES for vulching and capping an enemy field.! (lead a bit ahead, poof, BAM, crash, another sucker dead) :)
Biggest problem I have are 109's, 190's that stay fast & high. La7s that team up with spits. (can't out run, can't out turn without someone getting me)
-
Bf109.
Always was, and always will be.
One of the most challenging planes to fight and survive in IMO. Ofcourse, you can survive forever in a 109 if you play it safely, but the real fun in 109s starts with close-range maneuvering - which is probably the only way a non-vulch, altmonkeying 109 can ever get a kill.
The various 'personality quirks' this plane has makes close-range maneuvering very fun. Unlike most other planes, riding the stalls, chopping throttle, countering torque, getting into firing position, landing hits.. everything is a challenge in this plane.
-
190A-5 or 190A-8 those are my babies always will love flying them 109s are good to like Kweassa said takes skill to fly them. i think it takes skill to fly any german plane i mean any1 can get kills in a spit it takes a good pilot to turn fight in a 109 or 190
-
The Ostwind and the Wirbelwind. oh wait, they don't have that yet..............the Ostwind
-
Messerschmitt Me-110G-2:cool:
-
Ostwinds don't fly. P40s do.
-
There is an area on pizza with 1 mile downhill run to a 500ft drop cliff, Ive made Osti's fly...for a few seconds anyway ;)

LOL..been there....done that :aok
one...not so sober night, i had great fun with a couple of guys...we had a long-jump competition and the "enemy" just sat there laughing at those idiot rooks jumping and crashing while they were camping for kills :D
one of my top-ten moments in AH

Hmm, I'll have to look into the flight model for the Osti, now I'm curious about the drag model :)

P-38L, then P-47-25. after that, some LW crap and then the rest of the crap. ;)
~S~
-
P-40E - because i need something to blame my suckage on
F6F - because i just plain suck
-
Tempest and Typhoon. speed and quad hispanos. what more could you possibly need.
-
Yep..Ki-84
-
The 109s becuase the have such character :D
-
FW-190's!

A smaller radiator?

a tempest historically has 2 radiators so i think HTC should put 2 in... believe one was in the front and one was in the back

Depends on my mood and the situation ... I fly as many as 4 or 5 different planes in any one night and like 'em all in their own ways. One of the advantages of playing these games so long is that switching planes doesn't affect me too much.
Mosi if we're doing base capture and after 30 minutes the damn city still ain't completely down - about the fastest way to get a pile of ord and cannons someplace.
Currently I use the Spit IX for general patrol work - but my style is e-fighting, so you won't see me caught in a flat turn unless its time for the coup de grace. Otherwise I patrol in a P51D if it looks like I'll have to go a couple sectors to find stuff.
109G-10 for killing high alt bombers. Duh.
Sturmi for killing GV's and last ditch base defense.
La-5 or Hurri IIC for base defense, depending on how far from base the intercept is. La-5 is nice because you can get out of trouble as fast as you can get in it and folks pay more attention to La-7's.
F4U-1 or F6F for work from CV's ... depending on if we need ord or CAP. FM2 once in a while for chuckles if we're offshore an enemy base.
Fw190A-5 (2 cannon only) or D-9 for maintaining CAP over enemy bases - which one depends on my mood. The A-5 is more fun, but on nights when the Warp Gods are against me and I can't hit the broad side of a dweeb I take the D9 so I can get home at least. The roll rate and cannon ammo of the 190 is hard to beat.
-
Mine would have to be p-47 d-11 even though its a pain in the butt to fly :p I guess I just like the challenge
-JuGGy
-
P-47-40 is my favorite ride. Taking my time in it to get to know it well.:)
-
spit 9
spit 14
p51d
-
Typhoon/Tempest...It's fast where it counts, down low, bleeds E in the horizontal which is actually a good thing for a very fast plane that accelerates well, then there's the 4 X Hispanos with which any high deflection snap-shot will do the trick! ;)

P47D-11:aok

1) P-51B
2) SpitfireIX or F4U-1

109g2

FW190 A-5 and F-8
Switch between the Mossie and P47 for mud movin'.
-
Well so far for me my favourite has to be the Fw-190-D9. Just a great plane to fly. Good guns, good zoom climb, excellent roll rate, great speed, just a great plane IMO. Next favourite has to be either the 109 G-6 or G-10.
-
This I find amazing, when flying you'd first have to fly trough a layer of spit pilots (untill 10k) but hardly anyone has the spit as his/her fav. plane!
How come they're there so much than?!

Because you can lump Spitfires, Mopeds, and Fatchicks all together.
All are fun unless someone see's you.

Or people who might enter "p40E" (not pointing fingers, mind you) are bald-faced liars and y'all are spit dweebs through-and-through

I cant wait to try out the 38 with my HOTAS setup.:eek:
-
Whats your top favorite aircraft in ah?
hmmm
Don't know, gimmie any early/mid/late war planes and I can down enemy planes. Btw Flying A6M2 against a good '38 driver is a real challenge!:D
