Long answer: my favorite plane depends on what I'm using it for.
killing bombers: 109k4 (others too slow)
being bombers: il-2 or stuka
escorting bombers: la7
pitched furball: 109g6. No need for great turns, just kills targets quick.
1 on 1 dogfight: la5
running dogfight: la7
Short answer: I hadn't used the la5 for a while, used one again today, reminded me how much I love it's 3-d agility. There's nothing like making 2 online opponents overshoot at once.
I would also use the yak-3 in BOP but there's this little problem where all the planes have this amazing, infallible RADAR so sneaking around with a little plane doesn't do much good.
What if they erased the enemy dots from the map screen online
