Ze von zhat gets to fly home afterwards!!!

I agree with Herr Rommel
But, IMHO I think you need to fly one
plane(whatever type) until it feels as
if you are driving your car. The more
experience with a particular aircraft you
have, the better you know what it will do,
and what you can do with it.Practice, Practice.

Mein Bruder- You haf zeen ze Light!!

But zum- vell, zum of zhem it is beßer to take ein posting to ze ground war on ze OST front rather than to fly! No matter how used you get to zhem- life ist still very short in zhem- maybe exiting- but still short!

Planes such as ze Ju87 (except if your name ist Von Hess), Ju 88 G (Except if your name ist Schatten), Ze Typhoon in ATA, Ze Spitfeuer 1 in ein steep dive, ze Me109E in ein turning fight to name a few

** The Bf109E 'Emil' once in ECA/ECAonline fashion can kill Spitfires with eyes closed (if you don't go into a turn-and-turn-and-die combat)

** The Fw190A4 'Anton', very well balanced.

I say the Stuka.. Not because it can out turn, Not Because it can outrun, Not because it can out dive(well if modeled i know it will ) but because that silly Jagdflieger has this nasty tendency to underestimate the Plane and the Flieger behind the stick. Many an Allied pilot has fallen for the helpless look of the Stuka only to fall victim to its guns when they overshot or lingered to long on the 6 drooling at how easy they believe it will be.

WWWWWRRRRRRRRR BOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!
STUKA!

BBWWWWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

BUT if you want a fighter then give me 2 the 109F and a Hurri... love them both..

Oh, my two cents goes to the P-47. You've gotta love it... 8 .50's and the dive characteristics of a brick .

OK Im done stirring things up
Blur out

The best Dogfighter has these qualities that no other plane in the air has.

The best eyes, the best reflexes, the best Tactical mind, the best Shot, and finally the most important thing the BEST LUCK!

IN other words its not the Plane folks its the PILOT, his skill and his LUCK that make the most mediocre crate the best DOGFIGHTER.

check 6.. thumper.. out

To get the mission accomplished & survive

The Tempest gets my vote. Can take a huge beating, lotsa firepower plus quite maneuverable for a plane of its size. The Spit XIV is a close second, with its turning ability and impressive accel.

"The most decorated German soldier of World War II was Hans Ulrich Rudel, who somehow survived six extraordinary years of air combat. He spent most of his career flying Stuka dive bombers, lost a leg, then returned to flying status and finished the war in an FW-190. Rudel's 2530 combat sorties is a record you can set in concrete---No one will ever surpass it.

How did he survive six years of combat? Well, he was very lucky. In addition, he was a damn good pilot and an extremely tough, determined man. Perhaps his iron will was the critical factor."

It's the pilot...but I'd still rather be the pilot in the Spit.

Und I said a long time ago in zhis thread- zhe best dogfighter is ze von who gets to fly home afterwards- zhis implies zhat a good lucky pilot flying a brick can most of the times beat a poor pilot flying a superior plane!

The type of plane helps- but it is the pilot that makes ze difference!

you have left out my favourite plane ..gloster gladiator ..and ill be flying it in the next online war you just ´wait and see.

WWWWRRRRRRRRR BBOOOOOMMMM!!!! hehehehehe

For me if i have to i'll take an ME109F cause i feel secure with that baby.

*hhmm trying to figure out how to mix an ME109F with a STUKA..*
