Do you use these two planes? If so in what context? Are they worth buying?
How do they handle on realistic/sim? A penny for your kind thoughts please ladies and gentlepeeps...(ps considering purchasing...)

i have them but have never flown them realy, it just feels unfair using planes in multiplayer that others have no way of accessing

the same way I regularly see B17s in strike games limited to 43 so there's no countering with the arado and no hope of winning...bugger it...I want blood.

I'm in the US and play on the 360. I received the code as part of a special give-a-way on a gaming site I go to. (sorry the give-a-way is over) I have used both online. The P-47 is a beast but has some serious draw backs. Fantastic in a dive and those 8 .50's shred anything you can get a bead on. Unfortunately those are the only positives. It's very slow in a climb and turns like my Grandma's 74 Cadillac Eldorado. It can take a lot of damage but is a very large target for your foes to see. Also anytime you get that nose pointed down it drops like a rock. Aiming the guns is another problem... that is a lot of mass to get pointed in one direction, once there good luck adjusting your firing position.

The Ta 152 is interesting at best. Being a high alt interceptor all of it's advantages are negated by the alt limit. It starts to handle nicely at 10,000 ft. It can climb like no other though. It's OK in a turn above 7,000 but anything below that it's very sluggish. It's got great fire power and a high roll rate. But it makes for a huge target. I want to try it a a BnZer but after taking it out a few times and getting chewed apart I have yet to get the courage up again. With most of the online fights at 1000 ft or lower it just wasn't designed for that kind of fight. The one time I had success with it was on a strike mission filled with B-17's. Aiming for the wing this thing just chewed the heavies apart! I could usually take them down in a single pass.

Hope that helps.
