Title: Perk Planes, Just a hunch
Post by: F4UDOA on October 23, 2000, 01:51:00 PM

Gents,

Here is Pyro's listP-47M
P-47N
P-51H
Fw 190D-9
Fw 190F-8
Ta 152H-1
Tempest V
Spitfire XIV
F4U-4
La-7
Yak-9UT

Just break this down a second. Is he going to give us three Luftwabble planes because they get the most votes?? NO.
It appears as if he has broken them into four catagories. First 3 AAF, 3 Luftwaffe,
2 British and 2 Russian with the F4U-4 possibly appearing in British markings?.

I would bet that each one of these sub groups will get a perk plane instead of just the top three vote getters. Because I just can't see an American opportunist like myself flying German Iron just because it is a "perk", and vice versa. Just a hunch.

Fw190D9 and Fw190F8 won't make it to the perk list. If D9 has Mw50 (PLEASE PYRO) I am quite sure that SpitXIV wont be perked either.

Ta152 is a clear perk plane, as most planes in that list.

I dont try to know what is Pyro thinking. I dont dare to try it   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif). But if he wanted to know what does people thing and want, he just has found that more than 50% people vote for a dora and some 40% for Ta152 and Fw190F8.

Personally,I expect to see them soon in AH   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

id say that the 190 F8 definitely isn't perk, or the russian birds. the 190-d9 and teh spit XIV most likely ain't perk either. But P51-H, Ta-152, Tempest, F4u-4 most likely perk (with f4u-4 being the least perkiest, so mabye requires less points)

P47-N is a killller machine that thing def perk

Just my hunch...

Notice that all the variants are variants of planes that already exist in AH.  I bet that all happened by accident.

It will be pretty amusing having "perk" planes with larger production runs than the C Hog.(as many, and possibly the majority of the planes on Pyro's poll list have).

Imagine the firestorm of they make the C Hog a perk plane (which it should be). That would be entertaining :-)
