That's "Hoe-i-cane"
It seems like a fitting nickname, doesn't it?

you cant be serious??
if so i beg to differ, the Hurri isnt that good imo. Or maybe its just the pilots ive ran in to that didnt impress me.

so what were ya in when ya got waxed 18 times? ;)

Man, that's a plane I've tried to like. Inhales gas at an incredible rate, so you have to carry 100%. In my experience, I hear the stall horn any time I make a turn or climb. It simply drives me nuts. The 40mm has a slow rate of fire and of the times I've taken it up against GVs, I've watchd direct hits on M16s do nothing. In short, its just a frustrating ride for me. Either I need to practice with it a lot more or just move on to another bird :)

You guys have been watching too many pimp movies. I know Superfly is a great film, but even I get tired of it. :p

never claimed to be the best at AH, only been playing a lil over a month (first flight sim). :)
But.. mostlty the f6f since thats my "main ride". things have changed over the last month, my squad has showed me some nice ACM and the proper way to fly.
Hell i didnt even know to use the rudder to turn until last week lol
lets look at the brighter side..
2 kills in the p47 vrs hurriC (0 deaths)
2 kills in the f6f vrs the hurriC (7 deaths)
the rest are several differnt AC.
:D

Aamon I know your new just kiddin with ya,
Maybe you'll get thicker skin this way before the real flamers get hold of you....... :)
Have fun........all that matters :)
-
Well, it can HO if it has enough energy to point its nose up.. wich I rarely see.
-
hehe, Wotan said it! we just messin' with ya, Am0n. I die right at the same rate I kill usually.
LePaul, flew a IId and saw a M3. First time... one ping from his massive single .50 cal took out my engine. I missed him. Next pass he took off my wing. I lost control before firing. I re-upped and decided to go ahead and start shooting a little farther out... M3 go BOOM!!! Maybe 2-3 shells hit him. I wouldn't wanna try a M16 that's paying attention, tho. I'd rather have a IIc with bombs to drop on him. lol
-
Why fly a IId when you can just up a IIc and start spraying with Hispano from d1.2 away?
<meaningless stat mode>
Raubvgl has 30 kills and has been killed 6 times in the Hurricane IIC.
</meaningless stat mode>
Who needs 40mm when you have 20mm tactical nuke warheads?

The term HOicane is not ment to critisize the plane or its pilots. It seems that HOicanes are most used for base defence and their most common tactic is the HO. I don't have a problem with this. The plane is ideally suited for breaking a vulch in this method.
It gets up quick, turns well, has a short but deadly clip, and live or die, is most likely to take an enemy vulch plane down when the vulch pilot underestimates its ability to turn a vunerable position into a HO where it has the Hispano advantage.
I have been using the A6M in the same manner for quite some time;
Get up, turn to HO a vulcher, die in a mutual death, repeat untill the area has been sanitized. I think the HOicane, however, may be/become the ideal base defender. Prolly time to leave my trusty Zeke in the hanger and trade it in for a you-know-what.
:)
<S> to the HOicane and its pilots.
