Yall know the LA-7 can actually dogfight very well.:cool:
-
So can almost any fighter in the game- in better hands than mine. La 7 turns well on the edge of it's envelope & has great all around vision, no convergence issues- what more could a furballer want? There is that little thing about the scorn of your opponents..............

No ****.

I used to hate them with a passion and refuse to fly them, but this last week i've been upping the Lgay7 and landing heaps of kills in it.
I was frustrated with getting slaughtered in the LWA in my 109, so I got out in the la7 and took down a 5 plane cap in one sortie.
Can't argue with that.
haha
It has a fantastic field of view, it's really impressive.
I refuse to become a drag queen though, so I'll be back in the luftwaffe rides soon enough :lol

Everything is capable of fighting, so long as the guy behind the cartoon stick isn't afraid of cartoon death.

Shouldn't be but probably is for about 80% of those that fly them. If you find someone that knows how to fly it, it can be a fun fight but there are many, many 450mph, 3G limited LA7s.

Really?
I will have to check it out..........................

For you people without a funny bone... I am being how do you say sarcastic? Just trying to make those HO n GO LA7 pilots actually try to dogfight.

The funny thing is it's actually a pretty decent plane, just most don't put the effort forth and fly it like tards.

It has its limitations but it also has its strongpoints. Taking off in one from a vulched field with 50% is fun tho! Not long after wheels up your outrunning about everything vulching! LMAO! Also with the right throttle management, it can fight with nearly any plane in the set. Still I think most newbs fly it because they can see out of it so well and run if they get in trouble! :aok
-
lgay = newb plane. Just like the spixteen.
Last tour (before the arena format change) I promised to fly nothing but LAs the entire tour. I got 112 kills (100 LA7, 12 LA5FN) to 27 deaths (that's counting "out of gas" ditches and augers, and non-enemy related deaths).
*ME*. I got that score. [EDIT: Read this as shock, due to the fact that I'm a mediocre pilot] In about a week and a half (between when the tour started and when the format changed. I only flew for just over a week during this time period).
LA7 might get you kills. It won't ever give you skills. You have to have the skills first, then fly the plane, or fly the plane but fly other planes to learn new things.

Newbies in LA& are no problem, most La7s I encounter are the 4-7 year AH vets. THEY are the problem. Now of course they have 2 ultra uber rides to choose from- spixteen was just what the game needed:rolleyes:

No problem for me. I don't care how long theyve been flying, most vet pilots who fly the la7 as their main ride are easy kills waiting for me to find them. It's all a matter of knowing the plane you're flying, then you know the angles its capable of pulling. After that its all math!:aok

Do you know what he wants them to fly? I don't think he eluded to a particular plane he wanted them to fly.

LA's and spit 16's are easy kills for my hog, I have no trouble except when they gang me 4:1 or more,lol. 1 on 1 or even 2 on 1(me being the 1) I usually win with my -1 hog.
-
if you don't like fighting la7's and spixteens, there's a early war and mid war arena for you...
just my 2 cents

Well, not an LA7. Does it mater what it was? BTW, wana try your theory on the LA7 vets in the DA or are we heading for another meltdown after the spanking?

I don't think you were the reason for a meltdown that I may have had completely plastered on an online game so don't give yourself that much credit! If my drunken memory serves me right, there were several statements made by another player to me right in the middle of me owning you several times that put me in the mood for a "meltdown". So, if you would like to duel me and see who gets the "spanking", then catch me on and ask! Also I will not duel you if you just want to HO like you were doing that night as well. Usually, when I duel someone, we agree that no HO's shall be taken, not even if there close calls. So just with that rule in place alone, it would scratch u from default! Although I was too drunk to fly I still remember your lame face shots! I'll be on around 10:30 pm EST! Oh, and nice selective memory of what really happened that night! :aok

flying La7 makes it easier for almost anybody to get kills--- but it's not like ya REALLY die, fly somethin that's a little bit challenging ---La7 is like playing Doom with the cheat codes

It's not what you fly but how you fly that makes a ride challenging.

Last Tour one of my former squadmates wanted to fly it. I hadn't been in one in well over 5-6 months. Three of us up, I land 5 kills and had 240 rounds left.
I have outturned all rides in the MA with the exception of the A6M (80% of all of em either with MYSELF outnumbered or 1 vs 1). As SkyRock said, "It's all in the math." EXACTLY, knowing when you CAN and CAN'T cut corners and manipulate throttle is the key to this plane. I also RARELY drop flaps in ANY ride, I find throttle much more reliable and "less E killing".

I cannot see anything involving an La7 being challenging-- except for hi-alt, or trying to stay aloft more then 19 minutes

:huh So, hi-alt cruising in p-47N or 190-D and cherry picking is more challenging than actually fighting (no matter what the plane is)?

He's talking about flying the LA7 at high alt, where it does not perform so well (above 15k it is pretty bad)

No, he thinks that if he flies other late war rides instead of LA7 he has an excuse of flying timid and that entitles him to bash a plane he knows nothing about.

Not 1 time since it was introduced. Will not fly it 1 time before I quit.

I'm thinkin about flyin it exclusively next camp--- as a pilot, I've been at this some 6 years, and am prolly a 5 on a scale of 10, not likley to get much better, I fly P47N, (not the best plane, but it's fun) which is now perked the same as Lgay. If it helps me get more kills, it can help anyone:huh

Who asked you, mean bully person.
If you think you have got skills in a LA7 (or if you don't think it can stall fight) I dare you to duel bighorn co alt in one. He still thinks it is a spit, and will fly it like one. Sometimes I just want to goto his house and BUST his X52 into a million pieces.

I've done that and beat him easily. Maybe you just need more practice?

You are just too easy. Let me find the film please :O Dont remember any hos, unless you refer to the fact that I made you my ho? In any case, it will be good fun for all to watch. Not your flying, there is nothing to see there, but 200 was worth 4 years of subscription. :rofl

Make sure you post all of them I will be waiting to see if you are just here to distort the truth by selective posting of only the fights you won. I remember close to ten merges but I could be off by one or two. But at any rate I do remeber blowing a gasket. Now are you posting the films to prove that you won some fights with a plastered individual? I don't think you would win 3 out of ten fights with me sober, and I'm being very generous to you there! :aok So instead of hashing up the one occasioin that we met in the DA when I was obviously tanked, lets find out just how much you will "spank" me now! But then again, it might just be easier to remember that one 90 yard run, huh? LMAO!

No sir, I will try to find it as a responce to the claims you made in your post. Don't forget, I only responded because you asked me to. I can delete the text if you like, but you have to chose now. Do you or do you not remember the fights. If you dont, then your post is BS and I will post just the fights. If you do and you made all that stuff up, then I should just post the text.
In any case, to help your memory, the first 3 went something like this "whaa whaaa whaaa, you said you wanted to duel and you chose the 202, whaa wha whaaa, what kind of pos plane is that? whaaa whaaa whaaa get in a real plane. " so you picked the Spit V and a few fights later the gasket was blown. I have to coment you though, I don't know of many that can merge a Spit V at 400mph, :lol
Next time in the MA I will ask you. It will be the same as always. 2 deaths and you will leave the DA as you normaly do :rofl

OK, so I am lost. I thought I remembered but obviously if I dueled you in a 202, then I am mistaken about the encounter. Just as well though, because I can't duel drunk to save my life and I found that out by occasions just like you are describing. I vaguely remember the spitV fights, and "few" as you stated means something more than a couple but less than......what?....4 maybe? Did I win any of them? Does it matter? Like I said, so you beat an acoholic on a binge! I cannot defend many of my actions during those regretful times when I was abusing acohol and treating people disrespectfully, I can only say I regret them. Maybe I would like you to film some duels between us sometime in the near future, when I'm not finishing my umpteenth beer or vodka shot and post them?
So instead of you insisting to post old film of a pathetic drunk, why not create some "here and now" film where one of us can be shut up once and for all! If you "spank" me I will post on this thread that you "spanked" me! I'll be on tonight around 6:30 EST ready to duel! I'll be in the LW1, so just type on 200 that you are ready and I will RTB or auger and head to the DA. We will both film the fights. 202's first, then f4u-1's after that we trade picks?
:aok

Ooops, I should have put 8:30EST. At any rate, I apologize for being disrespectful to you in the past, bugs, and am looking forward to some duels! And yes, if you spank me, I will post on this thread that you did!
