Title: Do NOT lie...you ALL do it....
Post by: Changeup on January 02, 2013, 06:10:46 PM
when you enter furballs.  You know it, just admit it.  You judge the size and magnitude and then select your a/c based on how outnumbered you are, lol!!!

Furball - Sides are even, some goofs are bombing inaccurately and you die when you make mistakes.  Normal night.  
Plane Selection:  Your normal bird

Holy Cow Furball - Red outnumber the green 2 to 1.  No bombers in sight...they just want to kill you and vulchpickHOram.  You're dying a little more than you like.
Plane Selection:  Your normal ride..maybe, just maybe you pick a non-embarrassing turny bird of the manly kind. 1, 1A, 61, etc.

WTF Furball - Red is now fully in your DAR bar 3 to 1, some idiot is screaming "JOIN MY MISSION" on country channel, you die trying to squelch him, you up and are hosed by a random 190 that ran up on the base at 14ft AGL and got below the turrents on the field ack.  You mad now but you smile when your child walks into the room and says, "daddy, why did you kick fido?"
Plane Selection:  Tempy, CHOG, NIK, Spit IX, 84, anything but a F6F since you can't see crap out of it.  BUT, you up from a base a little further away, yes, yes you do because youre smart.

Jesus-Tapdancin-Christ Furball - Red is all around, the basetake mentality is now rabid dog, vulchfest, even ACKACK is below 15K and there are two other guys besides yourself and you are dying at intervals measured in miliseconds.  You are PIZZED OFF!!!!!!  You are cursing your countrymen on country channel for not helping and you vow to pizz on the first guy that excuses himself from the fight.
Plane Selection: 16's, zekes, and Brewsters

This is (*&^ BULL-(*%$ Furball - You can't up.  When you do, a noob kills you by accident.  You're embarrassed to play for that chess piece and the same goofball is screaming on country about somePony D mission he thinks will win the war that you no longer care about.  Everyone has left you and troops are running.
Plane Selection:  Jet rage from another base.  Kill them all, pizz on them, I hate them for killing me and making cowards out of my scoremonger countrymen.  Everyone sucks but you and if they would just admit to being testicularly challenged, you'd feel a smidge better.

I like the 1-hog. It's so versatile, I up it from vulched fields...  I will on occasion up an la7 to catch vulchers lazily commuting back to their safehavens, but a 1-hog is so much more sexy!

Furball, 1-5: F4U-1A, -4 if I feel like a perk ride, -1 if for some absurd reason the ENY is high enough to rule out the -1A.
Ground Attack: F4U-1C/D or B-25H

I would say I'm much more likely to decide what plane I fly based on the state of my gunnery at any given time than any other factor

  Pretty much use 1 or 2 planes most of the time. If really outnumbered I'll grab a B17 and go shoot a few that way.

F4U-1A for all of the above.

Once in a while the F4U-4, but it has nothing to do with the type of fight, or whether or not I'm outnumbered.

I-16 time, youll get 2-3 to auger trying to vulch you out of the 'H' hanger 2 to auger into the downed dar as you fly thorough the arch then you ho 2(cus your peeved) the re up a spit 5 or 109f as there is only a few left and kill the goon, mind you this applies only to the JTDF section of the op.

If I am shooting badly I will probably pick a quad cannon or 50cal bird. That's about all I would do. I tend to see all planes as the same acm-wise. Some are slightly better than others but in general they all have the same relationship with gravity. My point is that the type of fight I'm going to be in does not decide what I fly. What does decide it if anything is what kind of firepower I require at that moment to mkae a few kills.

I would rarely up a 202 into any fight, not because of the weak guns, because I think it is ugly as sin. That may be a second factor in my plane selection, infact.

2: P38G, any 109 still, maybe a P47
3: Any 109
4: 109K4 (as long as I can still get up)
5: 109F4, if a miracle comes and I do get up then maybe I can get a few to auger  :D

Just kidding.

Boom and Zoom, hit and run, stick and move rides for absurd furballs.  Depends on the location of the furball.  If over their base I might take P-47 variants with convergence set for "big wall of ugly".  If our base...it can be fun to fly a G2 with Gondies! ... but you can usually do a force landing so you dont need a speed demon to get home.  These can be fun and surprisingly educational for the enemy!

Dropping in from 15k with a Brew, F4u or F-6 (launching from another safe base to get alt) can be fun.

EDIT:
I am not sure how well known this is but I have found the I-16 can drop in from orbit and be on someone's 6 almost undetected.  Going from a dot of no concern to shredding your wings off in no time.  It does not necessarily come with its dive speed but its ability to avoid compression in a steep dive (using standard air braking techniques).  This can be really fun in a horde.  Dropping in from 18k to "look out for that ^%#&%@!".  You'll probably only get 1-2 kills using that technique on such a sortie but WOW is that fun.  You take an enemy with near smug confidence that they have a solid cap to stark terror in a moments time.  Like I said though, you'll probably only get one pass on your target in a horde.
