I agree with this.

On the other hand, I also think you should keep challenging yourself by flying more and more difficult planes.

You should never be obsessed by what others think of you. But you should be interested in what you think of yourself.

You misunderstood me, mate.

I know it's the pilot. Hell, I out-turned a N1k in a Dora last week. My only frustration with the N1k was in the later discussion. Lately, whenever I fight Knights it's just a bunch of n1k pilots. I was just frustrated by seeing 'n1k' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'SPIT 16' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'n1k' 'SPIT9' 'n1k' and so on.

I'm not trying to suggest that the Nits only fly n1ks, it has just be a trend at the times I fly of late. Not meant to offend, just an observation.

I tried to find a pic that Roe could use as his avatar by going to IMDB but they didn't have a pic of him so I googled the actors name and got the pic. Clipped it to 100 x 100 for Doc here in case he wanted it.

That funny ... I get tired of seeing '190' '190' '190' '190' '190' '109' 'SPIT16' 'n1k' 'Spit' '190' '190' '190' '190' 'La7'

No offense.

I like to take a p40 up just to see how long I'll last. I know I'm goin down in flames but it's a hoot to get a kill or two in a 40.

Most of the 'easy' planes are looked at as Newb planes. Hell, who cares?

Things I like about the La-7 as a starter plane is its very fast at the altitudes where most dogfights occur, handles pretty well with no required flap mastery, outclimbs most, and the cannons only take a hit or 2 to disable most everything out there. It's also not real fragile, and tough to hit due to its small size.

And when you are ready to graduate to something more challenging, the LA-5FN offers much of what the LA-7 offers in an eny 20 plane.
