Back on topic, I don't tend to associate the aircraft with the regimes very much. I like aircraft first and foremost. But I view them a little like one might look at animals. Lion vs tiger, stegosaurus vs T-rex etc. Being a bit of a softy, I prefer my weapons of human squander in museums, where they belong. Perhaps that's why I can't feel any enthusiasm for modern military equipment. Unless it's a minimum of fifty years old, I'd prefer not to mess with it.

Well there's all kinds on both sides. One funny thing I do notice is that on teamspeak Allied fliers tend to be more chatty than the Axis fliers. Poles and Czechs are fantastic pilots just like in real life and always fly Allied planes
 Many times if an Allied pilot fly's a 109 for the first time it always goes something like this.."Oh my god how do you shoot anything down in this thing"? One night back in the IL-2 2001 demo days two of my good friends UHOH7 and Herr_Spray ran into an intoxicated Swede named Burn. Burn spoke German very well and UHOH7 who was from the states also spoke German. So it was decided that Burn and UHOH7 would be the Luftwaffe side and I and Herr_Spray would be the Allies all on an open Roger Wilco channel. How hilarious it was listening to Burn and UHOH7 screaming and laughing in German, Burn crashing on the runway trying to get in the air and gradually getting more and more pissed until he could no longer fly and the conversation went on into general things happening in each of our lives. Those were fun times when IL-2 first came out in 2001, it was so far beyond anything else that any other companies had to offer. I loved it and still do. Storm Of War will have that same landmark effect I'm sure of it. So what I'm saying is we all have fun together. Are any people in this topic online fliers?

 Anyway enough of politics.I don't have problems flying Axis planes, especially Finnish planes which feel kind of "patriotic" to fly. With German planes I have to say I feel a little bit evil and more ruthless. I think it is because Bf 109 and FW-190 feel more like killer planes. Alliance planes are like "good school boy planes" when compared. Boring.. Russian planes had big problems first against Finland and I thought I would not be able to do it online. However after this discussion here I think I can do it, and of that I am happy.

wooooot...i have it the same way....lmao.....its wierd...my flying style are more set by how i feel when im in the plane than what the plane realy is..... In the 190 im like a tank....speeding ahead ramming through anything infront of me....in the 109 im more of a assasin of the skyes, here i am, now im gone... In the P-40 i use alot of time trying to fight "clean, as with the hurry and spit etc... The Japanese planes i fly more by reflexes and the "spine", i use the plane as a samurai, keeping to what i know, and fight with the spirit.....using the plane as a weapon and nothing else.... There is a few American planes that almost get me that "killar" state as the German ones the corsy and the cat....big mean maschines of war, but again, they need to be flown "clean"..... wierd actualy...well thats how i fly.....and right now i try hard to fly a "dirty" P-40 on my philipine map....for some reson im getting into that bird... Online story.. 109 then 190 *CFS1* then zero, George and at the end KI 84 *CFS2* 109 IL2, 190 *FB* then back to japanese planes with *PF*, into 109 and 190 *1946* and now after some time of IL2 im in the P-40.......and back into the pacific lol....

I don't know what are the standards regarding recruitment here, but I don't think there is anything bad in trying to Ninja Recruit out of blind someone (or offer a home for orphaned pilot).So if you are interested of very great squad, then consider joining =69.GIAP= We have awesome pilots and trainers. We have four online war campaigns rolling: Burma 1941, Midway 1942, and two Eastern Front 1944 campaings. We have a *woman* as our top 1vs1 duelist (at her best age)! Talk about immersion. VVS had women in real. We have separate fighter, ground attack, and bomber sections. The only thing we don't have is Drama! And everything is voluntary in our squad. It is up to you what you want to do and how high you want to aim. If you want to participate only once a month on online war flying, that is fine. You can also be total "noob" and still we accept you no problems. If you are interested to check us out, just say Hi in our public forum at http://www.69giap.com. Edit: Oh forgot to mention that our ground attack section have private and secure vodka distillery  But that is Top Secret.

Today most end up as kills/points......back in the days you had to survive, and then you might get a kill.....you had to be carefull about ammo, adn flying German was a fuel pain...sometimes you had to land and go take some coffee and then take of, just because of the limitet fuel..... Black smoke trailing from enemy plane, you simply flew on, you know he was out of the fight, you couldnt affort using more ammo on him, we actualy made training sessions flying with damedged planes, everyone was important, every bullet did count and evryone fought to live and not to kill.....
