Great additions. Both will be fun for a long time to come. Nuff said. :aok
-
Agreed, I love that I-16 its almost like you can get it to just hover in mid air :rock :rock
-
I-16 is a real winning groovy tool. Just gotta get in close with those twin 20MM and give em a quick squirt....job done. I think we'll see plenty of these in the MA especially around base defence. Don't forget your drop tanks guys ;)
The brewster I feel will go the way of the P39 but still fun to drag out from time to time.
Gotta say thanks to the powers to be.....nice additions

I'd say the opposite. Felt like the Brewster is gonna be the fun one. I-16 will be fun too, but take more getting used to.

They'll both be fun. Just watch out for Apercot if you see the one you think sucks.
I've only flown the I16, it was Great.

i think Brewster own l-16 in most cases. I realized that yesteday on the Beta test online run. I was flying the l-16. and i got shot down by Brewsters many times :cry. Brewster has much better turn radious, roll, better balistics and overall is lighter than l-16.
-
One great advantage to the I-16 is with the open Cockpit. If you get an oil leak, it doesn't really ruin your view, you can still fly and kill in it, even with oil all ovre the gunsight. AFAIK, its one of the few planes to have this advantage.
-
I-16 I managed to flat spin low speed and flaps :o
Brewster ...noticed at low speed and crossed controls (rons peds) had an unusual skid effect in that it tuck a few seconds to straighten out. Felt like a flat spin for a second. Could be my crappy worn out pedals though :(

I felt the same at the beginning of the evening until I really got in the brewster and got the 4 .50's going at conv 200 and all my views set up. Those .50's are quite lethal and all a tight turnin', close fightin' plane like that needs. It's a great little bird.
WW's thread that baldeagle posted above has some great stuff in there by WW and others.

I like the both of them. Actually I like them a lot more then I thought I would.
Unless Im on a CV I think the 235 will substitute a lot of my FM2, or even Hellcat, time. For base defense I'll be buzzing around in I-16s a lot. The small MGs are actually useful for killing troops, and if your going to be taking a bashing why reward the vulchers with 5 eny kills?
Plus I see visions of Continuation War recreations, or even Pacific ones, that ought to be great.

I was amused that the Icon for the Brewster is BREW... :rofl

Same here. :D

You people are delusional, both of these planes will become hanger queens and will only see play time for events. A P-40B will not only own both of these but will fly away while taking vitually no noticable damage and when that happens to you, you'll park it and forget about it.

:lol :lol

you know starting out a post with " you people are delusional" is not the best idea, besides best pilot almost always wins regardless of the ride. I like both planes and welcome the additions. I would sooner see early war planes than "F8F's" thanks htc. :rock

So bitter for one so new. :D

Heh, Brewster is 3mph faster on the deck than a P-40B and should accelerate better considering it climbs clearly better. We already know that Brewster is far more agile. Given equal pilots, if P-40B finds itself on the deck with a Brewster at same speed it's pretty much as good as dead.
It would help you if you would actually know what you are talking about. :)

I heard the first person to get 1000 kills in the I16 gets an UNLOCK feature for the YAK-3 :rock

Oh my .....delusional being the appropriate word. :rolleyes:
Think he'll have to show us how it's done in a pee40

I was hopin that the brewster and i16 would be a good match for the other early war rides, unfortunatly the mk1 hurri/p40b are still the slowest things in the game!
Poor little tomahawk...

I found it amusing only being able to fly in formation with the drones offline even at max power.
:D

Same, Brewster felt easier to handle for me, and is the one I prefer.

Brewster is a nice handler. Kinda like the FM2

Ahh, the FM2, (http://www.thescubasite.com/smile/love/love0019.gif) One of my very favorites.
From what I understand so far, I'm gonna love it....
...but we'll see
