Title: Blinky... To Erich
Post by: Blinky on September 27, 2017, 01:28:41 AM
Hello everyone - I would like to let you all know that I am changing my name. As I no longer warp around the field like a mad chicken, I am going to go with my original steam/many other platform names I have gone with for quite some time now. Unfortunately the name "Hartmann" is taken, so I will be changing my name to "Erich" yes, after Erich Alfred "Bubi" Hartmann.
<S> All

C'mon Blinky, don't be a Luftwaffe poser.  :devil

There are plenty of other great Luft pilots to choose from.

Here are some suggestions of names that I have not seen anyone use:

Johannes 'Macki' Steinhoff
Gunther 'Franzl' Lutzow
Hannes Trautloft
Emil 'Bully' Lang
Eduard Neumann
Gustav Rodell
Erich Hohagen
Rudolf 'Rudi' Sinner
Erich Rudoffer
Otto Kittel

Just to name a few.

In all seriousness the 109 is much more fun in the MA than the American planes.... Just my opinion obviously. The P51 and American planes in general and in the real war were better planes.

Ehhh it’s not as controlled chaos like flying a German plane, the American planes like to be handled with a smooth hand and takes some working to get the over shoot.

Top of the scoreboard. Simple as that.

The only other aspect of worthy note is his claim that he never lost a wingman to the enemy.

Nothing wrong with the man, but other than his kill total I find him to be very uninspiring.

I am NOT real sure where this conversation went wrong... LOL. However, I wasn't really meaning to copy any one or anything, I just kinda realized Blinky meant absolutely nothing to me other than Skyyr telling me to change it to that because of me warping so much (jokingly) other than that, it has 0 meaning. Erich has been my steam name for quite a few years, and I just wanted to change it lol... Might think of something to change it to if its that much of a problem... but don't I have to wait a month?

 
In all seriousness the 109 is much more fun in the MA than the American planes.... Just my opinion obviously. The P51 and American planes in general and in the real war were better planes.

I agree 100% And I have basically flown them exclusively since the day I started.. Mainly because I can't STAND the .50's on the american planes, because they coming in screaming from 800 out. Who needs aim then? Lol.

If I ever had a name change in AH I would change mine to Rall, or something witty with Marseille.

My favorite two pilots are Rall and Marseille. Love hearing about Marseille's reckless antics, and his view on authority, and also love hearing about Rall, and fighting with JG52.

Oh yes. What I like to do is add onion powder, throw in some Reich, throw in some anti-Semitic propaganda, add a pinch of Soviet Union to tame the strong flavor. Then throw it in the crockpot at 1933 degrees, cook for twelve years and serve with an Aryan ganache.

109G-6 is probably the most fun plane in the game to fly IMHO.  Great flat turns, does OK in the vert if you've gotten your E up, and does some great rolling if you keep the garbage gondolas off.

I also prefer the G14 over the K4, just because the K4 seems too much anti-grav for my taste.  I tend to get timid and just hang on my prop waiting for a stall instead of being aggressive and forcing pilots to make mistakes.

You can do just as much in the K4 and more because of the engine. I've gotten pretty good in the K4 and I know the extra climb ability is everything. Well, the extra engine power rather

They're OK in some situations, but in a strict dogfight, I'd rather have my full maneuvering.  If I'm going to carry the gondies, I'm either deacking or going after buffs for the most part.

Nothing to worry about, you'll be flying with friends and fighting with squad mates.  You really should try this, it will be good for you, trust me.  This is the next level of the game, and I know, you'll be just fine sir <S>.

From there, you should try a FSO, where the game really lives.  Everything else is just practice.

KI61 is a great plane...  I love the new model.  It's a lot like flying an underpowered over-heavy 109.  Once it gets up to speed, if you let the wings and torque do the work, it retains its E surprisingly well too.   :joystick:
