Now i have allmost 3 sorties in total in the 190a5, but flew it as i would a p51. The only difference is Cannons. I prefer .50s..

So i find no difference between the 190a5 & p51 except for the weapons and the fact that the p51 is much prettier    

It take no skill to fly the 190a5 or the p51. Both rides are the same.


Dog out..

Wardog you are giving me the reason. I dont say that P51 is a superplane, I say it is the BEST arena plane, and that if it was used to FIGHT (like you do) and not to run it would have a much better K/D ratio than now.

And for sure there would be much less whinin on 190A5 and 109G10s, and less "runstang" calls on #1  

P51s are fighters, damnit. Not running dogs.

so RAM now that you have proven the P-51d flight model lives up to it's historical counterparts reputation and needs no adjustment...

tell me your opinion of the accuracy of the Fw190a5 flight model.
is it accurate in your opinion?
or is it undermodelled or overmodelled?

Hehe, sorry you dont value my opinions, do you?...then I must have to ignore your question  

Extraofficially, I must say I feel it is a bit unnacurate   there seems to be a bit weight problem with the A5...

Ask Pyro. He knows about it already  

BTW I was talking about the use given to the P51 in MA, not the plane modelling. It has been a nice try to hijack the thread and lock it up in a A5 whining fest. But so sorry I wont fall in your trap

Citabria, as I told you before I wont let you hijack the thread. This is the last answer I give you here.

The paragraph you quoted is the main reason I flew P51 tonight. Boredom. Boredom of HOs, of running dweebs and stupid whining on German plane models. That was no argument for my post. Was an introduction.

In nowhere I say P51 is over or undermodelled, nor I say anything about A5's model or G10's model. I say that there has been a lot of whinin on A5 modelling (fact) and G10 invencibility (Fact).

And so I said what I said. Clear now?. I hope, because I wont answer you anymore in this thread.

I will hijack the thread, ty.

Nath11 has 42 kills and has been killed 2 times in the Yak-9U.

Would be 42/0 except for 1 death because of a disco, and the other from a suicidal newbie who vulched me when i was landing with no fuel.

Yak9U is the best aircraft in the game below 20k. Only thing that rivals it is the 109G10.

RAM, you didn't mention that some of them were vulches, was it at 16?      I was rather surprised to see you in a 51.

On a positive note, you should be fairly used to the P51 as I think it flies like the 190a5 (IMHO), yet a lot less responsive in everyway, though the wings fall off in steep dives and very hard turns.  I've flown the 190a5 about 20 times now and I'm still getting used to it but it's fun, not totally different to everything else.

As for the P51 being porked, well HTC have said that there IS something wrong with it and have been working on new flight models (which include other planes too).

As a member of Hitech's squad, I sure hope you don't get any extra influence chatting as wingmen. Your idea of scoring in the MA is pathetic, and if HTC ops for the perk planes,I hope your idea of score is completley disregarded.

 Quote: "I fought at least 4 Fw190a5s in the first part of the night (before going to TA), one was quite stolen (but I remained silent), 2 more were assists, and one last augered with no kill awarded."

That's just plain ridiculous. Wake up.
