do you have a bad luck plane?
« on: June 24, 2010, 08:47:04 PM »
Mine is the P-47M.  Whenever I up this beast, there is some sort of comic mishap (combined with the usual operator error).

Does anyone else have a bad luck ride?

 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

P-47M and the FW190D-9. Both of which, always seem to attract the biggest tater dweebs in the game.  :joystick:

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.

P-47M also, lately.  Nothing seems to go right.

Overall though, A6M2.  I just can't manage to do near what I can in it versus the A6M5B.

P-47M

Always seem to get destroyed by the slightest ping when I'm in it.

And to be fighting against, probably the C.205.

It's like a mental block. I can't for the life of me kill a C.205.
