Best perk collector i found was two land two kills with every fighter in the hangar. Start at the top and work your way down. Not only do you rack up the perks you get a taste for each plane.

190A8, C.205, 109E & F all great perk earners.

I've got to agree with Bat here. Overall I think the A-20 is much more capable plane 1 on 1 but in the MA enviornment the mossie is a devestating offensive weapon. Very easy to rack up 4, 5 or higher pelt sorties. I havent reached double digits like I have in the A-20 but had multiple 8 kill sorties over the weekend. The mossie (if its not burning) is remarkably survivable. I've landed multiple sorties missing half a wing (and actually racked up a kill vs a nikki (with Bat onboard) missing a wingtip and airleon. Worst thing about the A-20 is you get bomber perks which are usless (unless we get the A-26) vs fighter perks (still useless but at least you have toys to fly).

109G-2--Personal favorite for perk farming.
190A-8--Buff hunter.
Yak9-T/U--Favorite planes.
P-38G--Good way to get point when ENY is high.
P-47-D25/11--Good, sturdy aircraft.

that was awesome! only thing ive seen that beats it was furball making a kill in his 262 with no wingtips on both sides.

strange coincidence, that was on a niki also, if i remember correctly, though it might have been a ki84.

P47 D-25.....Im around 25000 perks right now...and I would guess that over 70 percent have been made with this ride.

The 190A8 for sheer kill to perk-point ratio is the best, if I'm not mistaken.

It's actually a monster too, if you fly it right you can hang with a surprising number of opponents of varying skill levels.

I actually happen to like the A8 as a fighter and I use it quite often (it's one of my top 5, easily) just for fun.

The offensive armament means that you really only need one snap shot at D400 to get a kill, so even if you can't hang with an oponent in an extended turn fight, all you need is that 1 chance to capitalise on.

Once you get good with the 30mm cannon you can pull some absolutely fantastic shots from D400 and further out. In any other aircraft these shots would just be a nuisance ping to your enemy. The 190A8 deals severe damage for very little ammo outlay.... and it has HEAPS of ammo.

620 rounds of cannon IIRC.

Forget farming perks, fly the 190 A8 for fun... you won't need perks for fun and if a situation arises that requires a lot of fighter perks.... you will always have them.

in a slow target rich situation the spit5 or the a6m2 will earn you lot's...I like the fm2 in slow low weed scraping fights because the Nimble Pig(fm2) is a lot harder to take down than a spit or zero....but the guns are a little less than average, but if you like 50cals....it is a fun ride.

I have also been eny restricted and flown a 109e & F and found they are very capable perk farmers.

Worst thing about the A-20 is you get bomber perks which are usless ...

A-20 can be scored as "attack" which I believe gives you fighter perks ... no ?

Nope, sadly I have thousands of bomber perks now:(

No... fighter vs. attack is for score, not perk points
