Gloster Gladiator and Fiat Cr 42

Manueverable? holy s*** yes. ;)
Go with two wings or go home. :aok

hehe, If you get them both, I'll add your choice of terrains; Iraq or Ethiopia, Eritrea / Italian Somaliland

I'm afraid they would become hangar queens, however they would be really good for special events.

How about a Fiat G.55 and Ki-43?

Maneuverability isn't equal to small turn radius. :) One complete roll took 8-9 seconds with a Gladiator.
They could be a lot of fun together, but in events where any other planes are involved, well...you know.
Though both are somewhat sentimental favourites of mine. Against each other only, they would be awesome fun.

Biplane fighters wont have the best roll rates but I would still love to try them out.

Anything that isn't super uber will be hanger queens in the LWMAs. We need more gap fillers.

I think we need a definition of "Hangar Queen" first :)

Guppy, get something for that pervasive cough you have. ;)

1. A plane that most people wont fly because it isn't the best in its category and their lack of skill would just get them killed faster then in a late war super plane.
2. A plane that that would see very little use in the LW because (#1) but would be used mainly in every other arena.
3. Any plane built before 1944 and is usually one not one flown by the Americans.

According to #1 probably most planes are HQ's ;)
and it's #2 what I'm wondering about... how little use is "little"? Is "usage" below .5% low enough? Or the bottom 10 planes on the list? I'm occasionally using the HQ tag myself, but I don't have any idea how to define it... :headscratch:

Now that's a clear definition :D
