Of course you're biased but who gives a shit? I have learned 90% of my knowledge on Soviet aircraft from you so keep it coming. I do have issues with the way some planes are represented in the game (ME262 is too slow, the fw190 should be more stable, same for the P51 etc etc) but this has nothing to do with you. But yeah I think some Soviet aircraft are a little too good but again I am very biased towards german machines and I don't feel bad about it.

Only good in the right hands


its the pilot that makes the plane. A good pilot flying a 109 could comfortably take down any of the ruski planes. You know your planes strong points and the enemies weak spots then your already on to a winner

Were flying in the era where its the man not the machine. Though.... stay away from the P51 and the FW190 for the time being hahahahaha

I completely agree which is a big reason this era fasinates me! I just feel that there is a slight bias towards the performance of the Soviet aircraft vs reality. Not much, but just a little, I could always be wrong. I came from below and behind on an il2 in a 109F4 the other day in Realistic and pumped a point blank 3-4 second burst right into the heart of the fuselage with visble gun and cannon hits numbering likely in the hundreds and literally nothing happened except a very faint smoke trail, I peeled off and went after something else. To be honest I completely avoid il2's when I see them. Don't get me wrong I like a challenge but this has happened enough that I can't be bothered anymore. One of the worst intances came when I got out turned one whilst piloting a Spit!!! Give me a break.

This is one small part I dont like overall this game is incredible.

I don't think you're biased, you just like the Soviet planes more. But I don't think your enthusiasm affects your judgment, ergo no bias!

Yes you are Totally Biased even if your advices are valuable

If we listen to you we could think that the LA5-fn could so easily outturn a spit mkIX. And that is my friend totally wrong

The LA5-Fn has a little advantage over the Spit but a tiny one. And That's a Combat proven fact lol lol

However i should admit that is far far easier to get the best from a LA5-fn than a Spit (which could be stubborn donkey without being disrespectful for Spit Fans)

But a Spit in the hand of a good pilot is somewhat equal to a LA5-fn in a turning dogfight and has more fire power
