War Emergency Power...a limited boost for speed purposes.

In most fights, I use WEP whenever my nose is pointing above the horizon.

Well, it's not that simple, but that's a rough guidline. Think about it.

I also use some WEP on my takeoffs and climbouts in Luft planes even in safe conditions.

Both.
I use it to get the extra push when I need more acceleration. The are many situations for that, like keeping out of stalling, climbing away, or catching up with a con.

guttboy must be flying a paper a6m or something

guess I'll have to figure that one out Udie... I find myself using WEP a lot with the G10.. mostly climbing and maintaining speed during hard maneuvers.

Well i tend to leave it on or off once the fight starts, depending on it's state at the begining of the fight. WEP in the G10 will screw you're roll trip up instantly and that makes it harder to shoot for me. Ok if I'm climbing in a fight it's always on too. It's off in a dive for sure though...

Thought for a while I should be in that lawn-dart squad.
