I didnt call it shit

i called it a shitfire



its much like the rivalry between the 360 and the PS3, it happens. Well this is the hurricane and spitfire rivalry, its all in good humour and jest.


And as a side note, i like how you said "one of" and not "the" as we all know the hurricane was the top dog in that dept......


Im joking before you give me grief lol, i would comfortably say that after 1940 the spitfire was our (and possibly THE best fighter in the world) greatest fighter.

That is completely inaccurate. We all know the Yak-3 was the BEST fighter in the world. At least I think so, and the rest of the Soviet Red Air Force (wherever they may be?)

I really dont mean to give you grief

I must have got the wrong end of the stick.

I humbly apologise for that. Plus i couldnt agree more the Hurricane (of which i also am a huge fan of) would go somewhat unrivaled in the theatre of war.

Much respect, Gaz.

no woories gaz its all in good humour around here.


Soviet ace, if this game was anything to go by then the best dogfighter would be the LA-7 without a shadow of a doubt, closely followed by the B17 hahahaha, as for the mustang, well...... all the films and history book and veterans must of got it wrong, waaayyyy wrong, because in this game it sucks.

Like I've said before. Speed isn't everything you know. Just take the I-16 for example. Great little maneuverable plane, and some good fire power to match! Only downside is speed and non-fuel injection. lol

Anyway, point is. I would take the Yak-3 over the La-7 anyday. Game or not.

As far as names go, I always kinda liked the Grumman Cats. Hellcat, Wildcat, Bearcat etc. My favorite is the fussin' and fightin' Tomcat, ready to take on a dozen of the enemy and probably get scratched up in the process LoL. Wait, I think my name is also a cat.

You guys are a trip! But you're all wrong. Yak? Awful!!!!! The cats are pretty good. Butcher Birds is great if it was a real name. But the best is:

Kingcobra! Damn good airplane. Too bad it's not in the game!
