Best specific pilots?
« Reply #60 on: June 28, 2002, 03:02:37 PM »
Thanks for the kind words Frenchy. I always have a great time fighting guys like yourself, your squad and the true great sticks in the game. I have to admit that I'm not really in the same league as those listed though, but eventually would like to know 1/2 of what you guys know with 1/4 the consistency you all fly it with. I'll keep practicing it though. I agree totally with some of the picks in this thread, but would like to add 4 more pilots that always fight hard.

LA7 - CapnMike and Pirate combo
110 - Mn7
Tenacity - Mog (great sportsman, and a hard working "team" player in everything he flys. He always goes looking for a fight).

Hblair, Shane, Ra, Sancho, Ammo, Nath, Fester, Mitsu, Manx, Akak, Levi are the true aces. Man, if you end up in their nose cone, you are done. You can totally black out on a high G turn while doing rolling scizors at 700y and you ear "ping ping ping" till the fatal "crack". Coupled to this they are tight on the ACM and plane handling, meaning no margin for mistakes, and whatever advantage ur plane has, u better use it because their know how to use their plane advantage too.

Any1 feel the same?:D



Wow!  To be mentioned along with those guys is indeed an honor and I thank you Frenchy.  Like Manx, I too feel that I'm kind of out of my league compared to that list.  If I knew half of the stuff Levi does, or how Shane reverses so fast or how hblair rolls his turns so tightly, then I think I could stand amongst those guys with equal footing.  It also helps that fighting against those guys and yourself forces me to fly at my best and I know when I lose it's because I was just plain out flown and nothing else and win or lose, those are the best type of fights.   Frenchy :)

no contest.
drex is the best in all planes.  hoollign is not far behind.   neither of them will ever be "ranked" very high score wise but if you've fought em..... you know that score means nothing.    Both of those guys thrive on looking helpless and low to draw in the guys who think cherry picking is "skill"..   The first step in dying to one of these guys is getting behind em with an e advantage and a superior plane.   that is my definition of "good".  

There are a lot of extremely good pilots in the BK's but none that care about score much.   Wish I were half as good as most of em including apache and the x men (xd and xm)..   We got no missions and we got no titles...  We just have fun cause well.... we are just better pilots and ... well.. better human beings than you.

I see a lot of "who is the best" comments, in threads. In the original N1k2 (the FM you actually had to fly) Mit was, hands down, the best. Just a  FWIW

Hmm I have 94 kills in the ki61 this tour.  Yet this plane is very rarely flown.  Instead of naming the top planes why not name the lower end planes and their pilots?
