I understand your angle but a skilled player would be able to have fun flying mid war plane in such enviromet. What im trying to get to..
Altho im perfectly happy with the game the way it is I also understand the plight of some ppl that are not happy with the unbalance.
I think the issue we are facing player base that is 20% super skilled and 80% average. It would be easier to make MA more balanced by limiting use of 5eny planes by 20% er than waiting for the other 80% to catch up, wich we honestly never will.
I would venture to say a lot more newbs in d9 or spit 16 would turn and fight a g14 or something along that line than another Spit 16 or god fobid La-7.
any restrictions on the game that limits what a player can fly or not fly, may result in said player or players quiting.
you have to remember alot of players have been playing/flying longer than alot of others, also they know all the acm-so that makes them very skilled, its not their fault.

[/quote] i'll fight a G14 in a spit 5-8,9,16-even though i don't like them the spit 14 as well.
just because a late war plane is faster in most cases than a late or mid or early war plane doesn't mean LWP's can't be shot down-it takes 2 items to factor that--type of plane and pilot vs type of plane and pilot. call me stupid if you want but i'll fight anyone with any plane against any plane at any time-except the Match play arena.
