have i ever told you i hate P-38's? :D

They are big, fat and ugly.  They climb well tho.


Now, my favourite aircraft.  Im sorry but i love the la7 and Spitfire IX.  I try to limit my sorties in them as i feel guilty - same as the 190D-9; i find im pretty good cherrypicker in it but i hate cherrypickers so i rarely fly it :)

I also fly and like pretty much most things, F6F, Hurri IIC, Chog, F4U-4, 109F-4/G2, P51B, B-26, Mossie.

And in my opinion, the best plane in the game bar none is the Hawker Tempest.
I am not ashamed to confess that I am ignorant of what I do not know.

However, the F6F shot down 5,203 Japanese aircraft during its two years of combat service. P-38s claimed 1,834 Japanese, and it served in the CBI, where the F6F did not see action. In addition, the P-38 was in combat for a year longer than the Hellcat. If you add in all Japanese kills by the P-39, P-40, P-47 and P-51, the total of all USAAF kills still falls well short of F6F.

The Hellcat holds the Allied record for the most kills in a single sortie; 9. It holds the record for the most kills by any American pilot in a single combat tour; 34 confirmed in the air; 21 on the ground with 7 probables and 16 damaged, the records being set by David McCampbell. His total of aircraft destroyed in air and on ground; 55 confirmed. That's the highest total by a U.S. pilot, and by a wide margin (remember, to encourage strafing in the ETO, American pilots were given credit for planes destroyed on the ground).

Any plane except the nazi stuff... unless I'm hunting buffs.

For fun:

1. P-40E
2. Hurricane IIC

For work:

1. F6F-5
2. F4u-C

Most of my kills it the blue planes was up until the last year.  All of my kills in the "fun" planes was over the last year.

I'm not disputing facts, Widewing.  I'm disputing the opinion that the plane that "won the war in the pacific" can be called the F6F.

F4U-1 because no one expects them to do half of what they can.
