Flying for anything but stats......

Underdogs were mentioned above...
One of the greatest fun was to stick to "worst" craft types on a map and tried to perfect survival tactics and score some victories, if possible. Pe-3bis on 1942-1943 maps, for example. Or Bf-110 in late war scenarios.
I remember spending dozens (or hundreds?) hours on one server with the only Summer3Online map flying exclusively I-153 surrounded by 104Fs, 190-A4s, Yaks, etc. I thought I developed some kind of 7th sense as I learned to turn just split second before being pounded by another boomzoomer. Eventually, Bf and FW drivers on that server upgraded their skills and I moved (reluctantly) to P-39...considered as another underdog by many.
