As in now? Which one are you obsessed with? Ive been going giddy over the KI-84 myself.
But Yak-mania is always a threat to take over.
-
p-47D11 and f4f and of course after perk farming with them I feed my 262 addiction
-
bf110G4 & P40N
I've also flown the SpitV in the DA a few times...I'd forgotten how much fun that plane can be. :)
-
KI 84 and wirble...
-
I-16 has been for a cpl tours now, just started flying the LA5 and I am enjoying that aswell. 109G-6 and P47-25 will always have a spot in my heart as well tho. The p39D too, man there are just so many planes I enjoy flying, maybe that's the reason I have never settled on one plane in particular. With so many choices why limit yourself? The challenge of learning all the different planes is enjoyable(to me)
-
The F4U is my one and only love.
-
Before the 38 it was the F4u. I have returned to her recently and she is letting me know she is a bit ticked off at me, but I'll get a handle on her again soon :D
Blue is best!
-
B-17G, but I also find myself dreaming about the B-29 occasionally. :D
-
With me playing a lot during the daytime with little to no air combat, the B29 has been my most recent sweetheart. However, when the baddies start showing up, you can find me in a P-51 95% of the time. I settled on the Pony a few years ago and haven't really looked back, as it just fits my flying style like a glove. :aok
-
F4U-1, it just an incredible plane, and one of the meanest looking fighters in the game.
-
Fighter wise im enjoying the Yak 3 and Dora alot at the moment, bomber wise i have a soft spot for the TU2 i generally only take 1 drop my ords then go into strafe mode :)

When it comes down to it, the A6M3. As for bombers, I still don't find myself flying anything else as often as the B-17 and B-24. :)

Lol, dont even get me started on the TU2S. I had decided I was going to answer this without mentioning it. ;) Best Bomber ever in AH. Made even better by the years of whinging for it. I like the LA5 as well. Like the Yak9T its a great defender against the mob. Get it up to speed and just zip around picking off stragglers.
-
Ki-43, Ta-152, P-51B, and the He-111 just because it's the best looking bomber in the game.

German bombers are ugly :uhoh

Better than anything else we have. I guess one could make a case for the B-25, but it doesn't have those broad wings, and stepless cockpit.
-
C205. It's the only fighter I've been flying for the last week or so. It's a challenge to fly and I'm still getting used to the guns. I've got about 125 kills in it so far. Going to try and get up to 1000 then switch to another "hanger queen" plane. Maybe even go to the C202.
-
PBJ B-25s are the most effective and best looking bombers in the game period.

Still wishing for AP rounds for the pumpkin chucker (they apparently carried 5 AP shells in their mix).

109K4 :D
The best of the 109's IMO. :)
-

You will love the 202. 205 is a pig.

Right now, it's the F4U. I feel like I really SHOULD learn to love the Navy planes after all...
But my real loves are the P-47D-11 and the Bf-109. I miss the crap out of them sometimes...
-
I don't know why, but I've always hated flying the F4U's. Maybe it's the hood in back I don't like; rear quarter SA is kinda bad.
Love the F6F though; stable, tough, maneuverable. If only it was a tad faster.
-
I've recently been getting quite a kick out of jet setting about.

The speed of the F4U seems better suited to me than the F6F, but I really don't like either of them at all compared to my old Jugs and 109s. It's more of "I HAVE to like a Navy plane, right?"

The F6F has the absolute worst rear views of any fighter in the game. Using your keyboard, views can be adjusted to give excellent sight lines out of the F4U. No such luck for the F6F.
Given the choice, I would rather the Hellcat had the F4U's roll rate than it's speed, any day of the week.

My favorites... F6F-5, A-20G and Bf 109G-2.

God, it's hideous. I mean the early models without the chin turret weren't much to look at, but this takes the cake.

The tail wheel retracts on a K4 :old: Looking at the bumps under the nose infront of the oil scoop, it actually might be a G10 pictured

Live & die in the Supermarine Spitfire Mk IX.

... He-111 just because it's the best looking bomber in the game.
(http://www.luijken.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/shok-attack.jpg)
And some poetry from Pembquist:
Starting with the Spanish Civil War, in my opinion nothing says nazi bomber like an he 111. It represents cutting edge technology of the thirties, the remilitarization of Germany, aspirations of conquest and domination, and brutal narcissistic pageantry that held the rest of the world in lethal contempt. In the end it became as outmoded as the ideas and leadership of the nation that built it. And while as aesthetically complete a distillation of violence as beauty as the Hugo Boss uniforms of the German millitary, it also shared the unfortunate feature of being a very dangerous thing to be in by 1944.

It is a G-10, from a Flight Journal article and photo shoot... I have the issue it appeared in.
-
I demand the old G-10, that thing was a beast!

It was a Bf109K-4. If it had been a Bf109G-10 it would have been slower.

Because he's Tank-Ace.

I can still want it though. There are times that I wish HTC was a bit less realistic.

TANK ACE!!! How have you been?! :cheers:

HE-111 is a terrific special event Bomber. I loved the BOB event.
