so, what one would be better in a flat turn, flaps and all used, im thinking a hurricane-1 would outturn the A6M-2 as it can lower its flaps at a higher speed and then pull inside the zero. they both turn fairly equal give or take a few feet per turn circumfrance.
-
The zeek wins every time unless the hurri has a decent altitude advantage.
The zeek outturns the hurri both in the turn rate and radius, it takes forever to open the hurri's flaps, zeek rolls fairly well at very low speeds, climbs a little bit better and is faster.
The hurri has two cards: more potential in a BnZ and better roll at higher speds. Not so much...

kind of what i was thinking after i actually did some testing. the hurricane flaps pull out at a glacially slow speed. from what i was thinking is the hurri wins if its at a higher speed. at low speeds it tends to wobble a bit more than the zero.

This. One of our intrepid testers once came up with figures on all of AH's planes' best turn rates and radii. A6M2 was the best turner, Hurri I came in a close second. It's one of the best fights in the game, but the zeke ought to win it.

the Hurr1 will bnz the Zeke for a while and will turn with it for a while also, but as soon as the fight relies on the extra engine power, the Zeke will win.

How does the brewster compare with these two planes?

in in aces high it's :O :huh :confused:

The Brew turns a bit worse in the sustained than both, has a speed disadvantage at higher altitudes against both the zeek and the hurri and climbs just like the hurri.
In the other hand, rolls better from very low to high speeds, has the very best gun package from the trio, has the best flaps, very steadily handling even at extremely low speeds and can hand on the prop "forever".
To rate them, i would be in the brew against its rivals. Its only real disadvantage is the bit worse sustained (not the instanteaous) turn rate, but it gains advantage in the scissors.

Might want to throw fuel weight in there aswell.
In EW, I kept getting chewed up by Zekes until i took only 50%, then i was able to outturn them just enough to chew up there tails.

how the hell do you get off the runway with 50%?
hurri's hardly get 7 mins on that much fuel. your sorties must be insanly short.

I dont wanna argue with you on that, but it depends on the pilot much more than on the fuel state.

lol You must not fly the Hurri1 much....
50% will give you 19 mins fuel. Plenty to get some alt and head to target, especially in EW's small maps.

raising post count? *double post :lol*
as i flew around in offline for about 4 minutes, (to get to 5k and to get over a base) i checked the E6B and i only saw 7 mins left.

Called BBS lag.
The hurricane is not an aircraft that needs alt advantage to fight. It does great down on the deck.
On the deck is where most fights take place anyways in EW.
Your math is horrible. 50% gives you 19 mins on takeoff. You say you "flew" around for 4 mins? 19-4=15mins. not 7. Ether you flew for alot longer, took only 25%, or just suck at math. 15mins is still plenty of fuel for the hurri 1 to get some kills and return to base with some fuel to spare.
But i wouldn't expect an offline person i know that.

lol now your gonna flame my thread saying i suck at math? hmm, ankle hump.
im sure my math skills are fine seeing i got into honors math.

lol. funny how whenever someone disagrees with you you say "ankle hump" or "butthurt".
If you got into honors then how did you get such a simple equation like 19-4=15 wrong? 7 is not even CLOSE. :rolleyes:

:ahand waah waah is all i see.
19-4 isnt even a equation. looks your math skills could use some improvement. want an equation? Y=7x(2-7)+3=12-5(3-8)+5. (whoever answers the equation correctly first gets a giant pixel cookie)

Oh well.
I named it the wrong thing, But at least i knew what such a simple math problem's answer was mr "Honors" student :D :ahand
-Poof- :bolt:

cant finish the fight, sad. you come in here and start it yet you never finish, just sad. :ahand
back to the hurri's turning, if your at 15k, could you possibly outturn the zero? your going faster than him up there and depending on how the zero really works that high.
-

:huh
I didnt know this was a "fight". I saw it more as just the usual Skorpion thinking he knows what he's talking about then gets proven wrong Like all the other times.
Its not a fight at all, In order to be considered a "fight" you would of needed Some point againt me. But as usual, you have no argument :ahand
I just dont want to get Png'ed because some childs pre-teen ego and inability to admit when he's wrong. :uhoh
ssooo, go ahead and pat yourself on the back and think youve "won" this "fight" skorpion. Just like all the other threads, No one agrees with you.
Oh, and heres a dancing banana as your prize for winning an internet "fight".--------> :banana:
Enjoy it :rolleyes:
-Pooof fo realz- :bolt: :angel:

you come in here, saying that 50% fuel gives you 19 mins of flight, say i have no math skills, and then you dont proove jack.
so whos the real retard here? im sure it would be you.

Im just gonna keep proving your stupidity since its raining outside and im taking a break from playing online.
My proof for the 19 mins in flight at 50% is that i went on EW and checked it. Ask anyone here to check it themselves if you like, they'll get the same 19 mins.
You have no math skills because you said with 50% you'd only have 7 mins of fuel left after climbing for 4 minutes. 50% gives you 19 mins. 19-4=/=7. 19-4=15. Meaning if you climbed for 4 minutes, You'd have 15 mins of fuel left for whatever purpose you upped.Its even worse on your IQ level because you say your a math "honors" student. Which i think your lying. because how does an honors student make such a simple minded mistake?
Skorpion, like i said, You have no argument, Just drop it. Your only embarrassing yourself.

19-4=15
That is indeed an equation since it has an equal sign.
19-4 would be an expression

what happened to this?
-Pooof fo realz- :bolt: :angel:
i thought you poofed out of here. but obviously, your just going to keep on trying to flame me because of your precious heli thread. also, when your climbing you use more fuel. if you use more fuel it shortens flight time. you obviously didnt think of that. so, once again, you have failed.

Your just so easy to hook tho. :ahand
I did climb, still came out at 15 mins full throttle. Try again.
-

Why will the Hurri I be BnZing the A6M2? The A6M2 is faster and climbs better. I've found the A6M series to be very good at BnZ when they are up against a slower aircraft, which admittedly is not that often.

so, you climbed for 4 minutes EXACTLY then came out with that much time with only 50%. not to mention you willingly admitted to flaming, im sure the mods would love to see that. so go ahead, shoo on out or continue to give them more reason to ban ya. im sure alot of people here would love to see that happen.
wheres lusche with that chart?
-

Just a hint but....
Might want to check what your fuel burn rate is offline and make sure its the same as Online before you try saying this/that is something its not. :aok
-
i have the burn rate at 2.0
same as the MA's

I'm not siding here, but Tyrannis- if you are as old as you say you are, why don't be the mature one and end this. It makes for a boring read when you come in here to learn stuff and see a 1v1 going on.

I eas going to. hence the -poof-. but on that day it was raining outside and i was taking a break from the game. Had nothing to do and skorpion was already hooked so i had a little fun with it. :t

even americans heavies become light as a feather with their super flaps,
I'm glad I dont play this game ;)

1) Hurricane Mk Is turned very well.
2) We don't have the F2A3 that had ~34lbs/sq.ft wing loading and was used by the US Marines at Midway. We have the B.239 with ~24lbs/sq.ft wing loading that was used by Finland. Thus, it turns very well, though not as well as the A6M2.

i dunno, ive gotten that brew to turn quitie well. especially with a zero.
