Drano;

Since the performance charts in AH make no adjustments for with/without gondolas, and knowing that obviously in  real life a serious  loss of performance would occur by having anything hanging in the slipstream, what proof do we have that the modeling and programming of this game actually makes changes in the weight/lift/drag equation when we bolt the gondolas on?

My feeling would be that a simple test would be to do a timed climb to 20K with/without the gondolas to see if there is a difference.  A lack of difference would indicate a lack of programming of this equation.  Don't know how we could measure turn performance other than by subjective opinion.

Bear in mind I'm usually looking to turn so that's why I don't use em. Now if I DO take the extra guns its gonna be because I KNOW I'm going buff hunting or strafing and won't be turning much if at all. Gondolas would be perfect for that.

G2 always without extra cannons
G6 1x30mm or 1x20mm
G10 mostly with 1x20mm. sometimes 1x30mm or 3x20mm.

I got a job, I post from work. Can't fly from work.

Maybe in a couple 'a years when you get this flying thing down, step outta the training wheels (G10) and take the G2 for a ride.
