i want to know the planes that people just tend to kill the most.
for me that would be jugs.when they get low they are dead. i love avoiding a ho with one then getting behind it and shooting the tail off. i can't stop myself from wasting some extra bullets on it to knock off the wings when it is already falling to the ground from it's tail loss.
for me jugs are easy prey. especially when one goes to tank town and thinks it can outrun my la-7 while trying to kill gvs it is so fun. they are big,fat targets in my opinion.
anyone have any other planes like this?
-
Planes with red icons. Because for some reason the green one's always have a close by wingman. Whenever I shoot one of them.. their wingman kills me first.

the ones that don't see me comming

ALL F4U's MUST DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if i see an f4 anywhere i will go out of my way to hunt it in the fight!!!!! i have been killed by them so many times i was begining to think conspiracy!
so now i dont wait for the conspirators to hunt me down and pick me while im fighting someone else, now i just take the fight to them straight away. not that they kill me any less now mind you, but i get the misery over quicker and by the time i get back in my new and shiny cartoon airplane the conspirators have all retired to their home base to rearm and refuel giving me at least a little time to enjoy the ride before they return.
DEATH to ALL F4U's!!!!!!!!
-
Looking up my kills in the MW from the last tour, Spitfires were the ones I had most kills on, 71 kills to 19 deaths, followed by the Hellcat, 42 kills to 5 deaths.

I don't think you have gone up against a competent jug pilot yet.

what part of him picking off heavy and occupied jugs at TT did you miss? :noid

:rofl
i didn't pick them off heavy i shot them apart after they dropped their ords on gv.
either way i love killing jugs and to me they are slow,but everything is slow compared to the la-7(not jets)
-

ack-ack
What's wrong with him flying a LA-7?
-
B-17s... I love me some Yanks.
-
My own :cry
-
Just out of curiosity I pulled up my career stats (tours 20-104)...
Top 5
La-7 1,665
P-51D 1,601
N1K2 1,580
Spit9 1,555
Spit5 1,010
-

Nothing wrong with the plane, but in this case the reputation of the La-7 is garnered through pilots like NEARY. No appreciable skill so they fly a fast plane and pick those that are either engaged in other fight or in his example with the P-47s, coming out of an attack run. Basically, he's a picker. So in this case, his flying the La-7 speaks volumes about his skills.

Kind of an iffy subject for me, especially in the month of August. I have focused mostly on the A-20G for the summer. In August, I did not take down a particular plane more than 10 times in that tour. However, I took down 43 Panzers and 37 Wirblewinds, while keeping a very nice kill/death ratio.
-
Top 10 from September's ToD:
B-24J: 35
SpitXVI: 35
SpitIX: 34
Seafire: 31
P-51D: 28
F6F-5: 26
N1K2: 25
B-25H: 20
La-7: 18
A6M5: 18
The high number of bomber kills makes sense because I spent a lot of time in the 190A-8 with the 4x20mm package, and sought out whichever bombers I could find. Otherwise, I told ya there are too many Spits! ;)
-
NEARY, last tour you killed 7 Seafires, but only 3 P-47s (of all types).
-
Well, here's my top five from two tours ago... (I went to two tours ago simply because a leg surgery prevented me from flying for more then half of last tour).
Spitfire Mk XVI 56
P-51D 52
SeaFire 43
F6F-5 31
N1K2 29
I did notice that while I didn't fly much last tour, somehow the IL-2 made it to the top of the list last month. I'm curious to see if the IL-2's new found popularity fades much in the near future.

Yes, people in LA7s that think jugs are an easy kill :rofl

There are far too many p51's being killed. When are people going to figure out that the 51 isn't very good for a late war plane, and get out of them?
-
I tend to go after 51's the most.
Reason being, they are rarely piloted well. There are exceptions and I have encountered a few very good pony pilots.
Most new people choose the P51 because it's one of the most known, especially to younger pilots.
I know my first plane I flew was the P51.
Neary, you should respect the P47 more. I enjoy getting low and slow in it because most people think the same way you do.
I can't recall how many times I've made someone over shoot me at low speeds.
-

Kuhn, what have I told you about the jug...... :lol
-
...Spit5 1,010...
Murderer! ;)
-
The ones I tend to kill the most are the ones I'm in.
Get rid of the hard deck! It hurts my ego. ;)

The ones that discount me in my Spit5 as not being a threat; also, the ones that think me & my Spit5 are any easy snack. :lol
Both types are usually ENY 5 planes. :D

That could blow up in your face. There are a number of deadly F4U sticks out there. Blukitty comes to mind and now Einhorn is getting very good in one. I got lucky and killed him once while in a A20 this morning but it ended there. Had some gud scraps before Arado showed up and spoiled the buzz.

rawwdog is far from decent and the only thing that player can do with any proficiency is send you PMs calling you a cheater for out maneuvering him.

How do u get the total plane type kills? Did you look at each tour and add them up or is there somewhere u can see totals for all tours combined?

it would be directly due to these "deadly sticks" that has inspired such a hatred of these damnable planes. every time i see one i would swear the little red icon say "F.U." not f4u!!!!!
so i hunt them and more often than not i get butchered by them, by this only further feeds the flames of my maniacal belief that ALL F4U's MUST DIE HORRIBLY!
<SALUTE> :salute to all who fly the DEMON BASTAGE PLANE, but die you must and die you will ( :devil just as soon as i figure out how to kill you first!)

I totally agree, and my stats back it up.
Plane Kills of
P-51D 64

I know within 5-10 seconds of the merge if I am fighting a real pony stick or not.
