They've been replaced with "Perk the Spitfire Mk XVI" threads.

They're still around.

Really one in the same, disquised as "why is the Spit XIV perked" or "perk the 109K4" thread.

It's more subtle now.  You have to look for them.

perk the nikki!!1!

That is sad if you ask me.  Why does everything have to be about spits and 109s? :(  I want my LALA threads back.

Spits can turn, 109s can climb, and LALAs had perk threads.  I wish HT could model them back in soon

  Most LA drivers spit out thier load of ammo in three bursts then run for home.   :bolt:  Avoid the first pass and they're not much of a problem.

Who would not run from a D9 my friend?  Their drivers are known to be some of the best dog fighters in this game.  If I see a 190 in the area, I start crying for help on vox and run home asap  :D

I see you like your LA in late war. I thinks it's slightly faster than the D9 but can't take much punishment. Those that conserve the ammo will do quite well in it. It's the first plane I got kills in I think when SYSPROBE gave me some training. Most will fly it BNZ and rarely dogfight.

I don't recall any Perk the L-Gay-7 thread since they redesigned the appearance.  For that matter, there was some discussion, at that time, that the flight modeling was changed along with the appearance; however, I don't know if that was ever clarified.  Assuming that it was changed along with the looks, maybe folks no longer feel that the LA-7 is the 'invincible' airplane that it once was.  :joystick:    :neener:

But, if it gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling remembering the days past .......


DANG IT!!  THE LA-7 IS NOT FAIR.  THIS GAME IS B.S. IF YOU WON'T PERK THE LA-7!!!   Perk it or I quit and I am leaving and taking my ball with me!!!!

I want a NUKE!   Why can't we have Nukes? 2 were used in WWII so we should have them here too (but perked at 4 perkies)

Low speed handling was modified according to the release notes. That said the N1K, which was not changed in the flight model, also experienced a sharp decline in usage after its remodel. It think many of the people who used these planes as crutches probably couldn't get used to the new cockpit layout and just went the the Spitfire MK XVI.

Yes sir, I had a very hard time adjusting to my crutches after the updates but I stuck with it and look at me now  :D  I can finally fly it again
