Ahhh, you can start with me before you fight the really good ones.  I'm always looking for a fight.  Always on after 9pm central.

There are a lot of good hog pilots, but to find out who is the best would be impossible.   BluKitty has the best overshoot manuvers in a hog.  THere are many that are real good, but it would be hard to say who is best.:aok

I haven't seen greebo's hog but his hellcat was a blast to fight.

TC
AKDogg
BluKitty

(in no particular order)

would be the three I fear the most in an f4u.

too many others to mention are "great" f4u pilots.

you reach a point where any of the the "top" f4u pilots can kill the others on "any given sunday".  There isn't really a "best'.

Yep, there are many very good F4U sticks, and as Lute says, on any given day any one of them can beat the others. Just depends if you're at your best that particular day.

My advice to Twolf2 is to come to the training arena one evening and get some practice in with either me or Murdr before going into the lion's den with Dedalos, TC or you (Skyrock). I've dueled all of these gents in F4Us and can give him some insight into his future ordeal. :aok

MtnMan
BluKitty

Also, some sticks are better at different aspects than others (like, as mentioned, Blu's ability to force overshoots) so it can be kinda complicated.

Ted Nugent, rock star and avid bow hunter from Michigan, was being interviewed by a French journalist and animal rights activist. The discussion came around to deer hunting. The journalist asked, "What do you think is the last thought in the head of a deer before you shoot him? Is it, Are you my friend?' or is it 'Are you the one who killed my brother?' " Nugent replied, "Deer aren't capable of that kind of thinking. All they care about is, 'What am I going to eat next, who am I going to screw next, and can I run fast enough to get away. They are very much like the French.' "

I agree with Slyrock and Lute on this one. I think there are more CORSAIR aces than any other plane in the Arena.

I think its because this plane is a great challenge to learn, but when flown correctly it is a powerhouse.

The main thing I like about it is its LONG LEGS, the ability to stay in flight for over 30 minutes and enuf ammo to get into the double digits without rearming. I spend alot more time in the fight than I do going back and forth.

I cant really say who would be the greatest corsair ace, as lute said everyone has their own strong and weak points.

Some names I will throw out there are.

AKdogg
Skyrock
BlueKitty
MtnMan (he trained me in the corsair)
Saber
just to name a few. I wouldnt say any of them are better than the other.
If they dueled a couple time im sure the wins would be spread out pretty even.

Yeah ... greebo is much stronger in a HellCat, but he can make any Navy plane dance.

Another good one is ... sehob

He never shot me down in a "fight", he may have piked me if I remember correctly.  He made a big deal about shooting me down in a temp as I rtb'd was the time I remember.  Only time we ever mixed it up was when he was in a ki84 and I in a hog, but that was interrupted by a gangtard.  I checked tour 87-88 and we had 2 kills on each other, but I don't remember any but the Temp kill and the Ki84 kill.  Why are you so interested in zomgpwn and myself?  What was his old name btw?  Is this another Stang shade?  ZomgStang>?  :D

Hey shamroc has never been on my ankle, he has been playing alot longer than I have. One of my trainers when i was a newb.  

But yes it does sound like demonslr is writing a check his ars cant cash;), he still a great pilot, but if is really seriouse he is ganna have a line of people ready to take a bite out of him.

Me Included;) Im interested to see what he has got. I was actually going to name him as one of the better corsair pilots i could name.

Oh and as far as the pickn goes, its not my fault they make it so easy;)
