A beginner's guide to the planes

If I get an I153 on my tail in arcade I pull out to about 1.2 km then spin around and blast them head on with my spit. Works every time in my Spit due to the superior fire power. There is no point trying to out turn them. They are pretty fragile, a couple of decent bursts wit most real planes will take them down

same here. got into a game 1 on 1 with this jabroonie...in the lobby we both had G6s (1 vs 1 i like to play the same ac). once the game started within a minute he's on my tail out turning me like crazy. i thought this guy really knows his $#!T. after i respawned i see where he switched over to a 153 and started the game in a sneaky manner without me seeing the switch. so i simply dove away until i put sufficent distance between us and smoked him repeately in head ons. i refused to get into a dogfight where he could use his plane to its best ability. the only way he was able to take me out ( and, mind you, i am not that good ) was to taran ( ram ) me head on. the only time i like the 153 is CTA (or if its a biplane game). you can land that puppy on a dime and if you have good top cover...its an easy game.

Perhaps your opponent does not know his tactics. Basically when flying an I-153, you surely lose if you fight head on and you can't definitely chase other planes. The tactic to kill a 105 or spit is to avoid head on, do a quick turn and use the 3-sec window to blast 'em out of the virtual sky.
