Don't get me started with the whole "it's part of the game" stuff. You know it's cheap and that's why it's done. There is no reason why 2/3 times I took off or landed on an airfield I had an Me-109 immediately on my tail.

We head to the RAF bases because more often than not it's the only way to find RAF fighters. Nobody protects the red bombers, and nobody bothers to climb above 10000 feet. They just fly in circles on the deck over top of their airbases, or sometimes they fly low over the Channel and then fly in circles on the deck over top of the Luftwaffe airbases.

I promise that if RAF people start getting altitude, and maintaining a presence at 19000 feet where the 109s don't perform so well, there will be fewer Blue pilots strafing English bases out of fear of high-flying spitfires. Couple nights ago the 71st guys were doing just that: Staying up at 18000 ft or thereabouts, and using team tactics to gang-bang the Luftwaffe guys trickling over in 1s and 2s.

But for whatever reason, so many newbies think that they shouldn't have to try to secure an altitude advantage, or shouldn't have to fly their aircraft to it's strengths. They just want to "dogfight" at treetop height all day.

If you want your base to be home free, there's already an easy-mode server out there that the warbirds of prey guys run. Go check it out maybe.
