Do you need to land to capture airfields i thought it was a matter of just having air supperiority over the area? Wow i know nothing of this game.

if you sucessfully land and stay down long enough you take the airfield. The enemies TICKETS will then start being reduced until they retake it. kills only take off one ticket. get to zero tickets and Game over.its basically capture th e flag..

as for flying on realistic/sim - just my opinion but I find the Bf109s more forgiving. In dogfights anything up to G2 will turn well- G6/10 and K4 have monstrous firepower which I used to swear by but up against spits and Las you can get ass wiped. Make sure to turn down sensitivity on controls when crossing over from arcade (and back up if you go back)...and as for the jets they're good for attacking bombers or being a sneaky bar steward...dogfighting they stink.
for cta anything goes, but a easy landing plane makes sense...the mc 202 and hurricane is a piece of cake to land...so is the PO but it should circling giant apes in New York...
for strike get on a team game and try and earn your B17...in the meantime anything goes..the Ju87 again is VERY forgiving and you can chuck it around near the deck...personally I cannot find much to love about the IL-2(heresy!) but many swear by it...

most importantly find what works for you...Enjoy

I've been finding the La7 a sweet ride, super stable and easy to throw about in a dogfight. But when I do get on someones six I just cant take planes down with it.
The Spifire Mk IX seems to need a bit more care to fly about but has plenty of guns when you need to take a shot and there's always the Hurricane. Bit slower manuvering but its also pretty stable.

My learning process so far has kinda gone like this
Learn to fly the plane.
Learn to look about.
Try to do both at once.
Fly while keeping looking at one specific target (I'm not getting too bad at this...ish)
Actually shoot people down.

I kept getting out turned by the spitfire flying this plane. I do like flying it though.
