Lgays are skill-less planes.  I understand the frustration that might temp you to use one :mad:

Zazen, is it really that bad to catch a few runners?

To tell you the truth I don't really understand what the big deal is about La7's.  On average their pilots are amongst the worst in the game.  The only thing 90% of Lalas seem to be good for is cherry picking and if you meet one 1 v 1 you'll romp it or watch it fly away, one or the other.  90% couldn't hit a barn, and most are completely clueless without an advantage.

What's the big deal?

Because they make you feel like a greyhound  chasing that little mechanical rabbit, you chase them, you want to catch them , you think for a moment you can catch them .......but of course you never do   ;)

Start slowly Jodgi.

First few sorties just kill LA7's then you won't feel so bad.

Then add in LA5's- kind of like bastard step-child anyway , you still won't feel bad.

After a few more  sorties , you can start killing 109's and 190's  - they always run away anyway so throw them in for good measure.

While you're at it  - you can start killiing niki's and spits  - no-one likes them anyway   :)



You are still feeling not too bad - and actually kind of liking it.

Toss in Ki-84 , it's like a japanese lala anyway  - ok to kill them now


After a few more sorties,  it's ok to kill 51's , and tiffies , mostly flown by porkers and HO dweebs , so they're OK to kill now.

Nearly halfway into the plane set and you're still feeling Ok.

So from here on in I'll leave it to your discretion , but there is one rule you need to remember - Never kill the blue planes, one of them might be me     ;)

Blue planes....



mmmmmgggggggggggggggaaaaaaaaa aaaaahhhhhhhhh



:D
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

some of the best fights ive had were against Lalas, 190s and 109s.



ok, maybe not 190s :D

if you stay around and fight using your plane's advatages offencively instead of deffensively, it matters not to me what you fly.


the la7 is just another plane, they dont worry me half as much as zekes and hurris.


saying this, i landed a 4 kill sortie in an la7 last tour.  did feel kinda like ditching it before the runway to save face... :lol

Well there are always exceptions to the rule, but I'd say those pilots you were fighting would give you a fun fight in any plane.

not often in the MA you can find a 190 looking to fight.

Hey sure thing! 190 vs. a jug could be fun too, although if it gets real slow the flaps will be an issue.

You know to sit here and call everyone a dweeb for flying the LA7 is pure bs. Everyone one here flys whatever plane fits the situation. I can easily say anyone who flys a 190d9 or P51 above 10k are dweebs, but that not right, its picking the plane for the mission. So many times you have pilots vulching a field. If you want to get off the ground fast with the best firepower available then the LA7 is not a bad choice. So, don't be so quick to condemn the guy flying the LA7 because you feel your so skillful and its below you. Its your fault your in the 50+ eny value plane not his. BTW, I see more noob pilots in P51, P38 and Spitfire's than in LA7's

Very out of place for you ... ;)


I am very observant, I see really bad pilots get away with incredible stupidity just because they are in the LGay7. It's a plane you can fly like a complete moron and come out smelling like roses, not very appealing.
