P47d11 should be in this latest AvA

There were razorbacks in service until the last day of the war. Just because HTC hasn't gotten around to creating late model razorbacks does,t mean they should be ommited:D Then you will see me in there.

seadog, you're no slouch in most of the planes i see you fly. why limit yourself? come in, try it out and take it for what it is. while giving everyone every plane they ask for is nice, the spirit of the AVA is limited planesets and historic maps. enjoy it for what it is. if we just put in all the planes, then we would just have another MA.

having spent well over a decade now doing this I've flown every plane in the arena and all of the fighters in 1 v 1 training and practice. Sometimes you just get comfortable with one aircraft type especially if it is part of your online identity in a squadron. I don't get excited about flying much other than the P38 because it is like an old friend and it is part of my online self. It isn't because I do better in it. It is just my plane.

I check the setup for P38's and if they are included I try to go fly in the AvA. If they aren't I usually find something better to do. Life is too short to waste.

some of the cool things to me about flying the p-39, and the p-40.

 different feel. they fly way different than my p-38. good break to the same old stuff.

 the best thing.....getting back in my p-38 o doom, and listening to the sound of those two allisons humming along flawlessly.

I can totally relate to this.  I havnt played for 10 years straight but 7 of the last 10 years and over that time ive flown almost every plane for at least 1 full day.  I have different planes for different situations.  I almost always bring up a Zeke for base defense, best plane for it IMHO.  Beyond that Ive recently been trying different planes to get the feel for them.  My biggest problem is after flying bish in MW for the last 2+ years ive almost always been on defense so ive almsot always flown the Zeke!  The hardest part is being used to 1 plane, i always end up trying to fly every plane like a Zeke and it never works out  LOL.  Ive actually been flying the 38 a lot more in the last few weeks and doing decent in it.  BigRats training session about a month ago in a 109 really helped me distinguish the difference between all the different planes and how they are flown.  As long as i can remember to use the flaps the 38, or just about any other plane, can be flown like a Zeke just in a different way if that makes any sense to anyone  LOL

when we change set ups it takes me roughly two nights to get 'used' to a different ride then I try to stick with it for the entire week.  Nearly impossible because I'll switch to balance sides.  But I'm having a blast trying everything I can and figuring out different things.  It is wreaking havoc with me being any 'good' but that's a long term goal. Heck I may even try a jug next time it's offered.

Being good has nothing to do with it as long as your having fun.  The best part about this arena is the ability to try new things.   Not being on the defensive every time i log in has allowed me to do that.  I do think base capture should be part of the AvA also but with the current town size and numbers it just doesnt seem possible.  To bad ranger cant design a town setup more suited for the AvA.  Id be up for learning the program if it is a possibility!
