To the person above who was calling Tex out about using the I-16. It has been stated before that Win or Loss is more dependent on the quality of PILOT than of AIRCRAFT. That said, Look me up in M.P. I'll show you what the I-16 can really do, and give you a really good look of how it looks in your mirror.
Try the I-153 Chaika. If you don't already have it, do the second to last mission in Stalingrad, in Single Mission. That plane is easy to kill the engine.

And I'm glad to see I'm not the only person using the I-16 in multiplayer. I've had several successful kills with it, all confirmed with the little confirmation sign thing? It is a great plane to fly, if you know how. It's no Yak-3, but turning it sure does come close
