If it is a 42-43 arena then you must put there G2 and G6 too, funked  

Hblair I agree with you, I have flown G10 a lot lately on MA, it has a terrifying acceleration ,but it is hard as hell to fly with that damned lack of elevator response.

It is an engine with wings. And so is a brick to maneouver. I remember Hangtime's comments when he was flying the G10. (I was in bishland at the time). He said it was the most treacherous plane he had ever seen ,and that the respect for people flying it had grow a lot after his "bad experience"  

That doesnt sound that well, does it?

Keep in mind these were flown with the flaps that worked at any speed against opponents who spent most of their time in other games. There weren't many quality full time pilots here because of the infancy of the game, etc.

I did fly G10 last time in 1.03, I didn't see anything bad in it  
Better than ever (even though those air brakes are missing)

Hehe. That is why I love to shot down LW planes -- because they are so uber  

It is a real pleasure to find a pack of LW planes, get few and then run away from others in my slow spit...

But actually combination of g10 and a5 is one of the toughest in the game. If they have expirience pilots at controls -- they are deadly.
