La-5fn

[the_somme]

i only fly the 109 series. mostly i use the g-6 or the g-10. i have alot if success in these planes IF i stay out of the turn fights. playing 1v1 is suicide if the opponent is flying a spit or la, so i try to avoid those games. however if theres alot of people playing i try to single out one opponent and dive on him. or just make passes over the furball for quick snapshots and then zoom.

even when i make passes i try to never do a turn, instead i climb away and do an immelmann och dive back down. sometimes it clicks really well and its so fun and you feel like a true bird of prey diving down on someones six and finishing him in one burst and then disappear.

this tactic only works good in sim mode though when the opponents cant see you all the time.

i can't fly the spit to save my life and the La-series is ok. i've been totally dominated by guys like ancient seraph and morgoth in their spits and those times its hard to see any flaws in that plane even though the pilot matters the most . but when i try the spit i just cant manouver. the firepower is stunning but i stall whenever i try to turn. tried to lower the sensitivity etc but to no avail.
