I-153: cheap or not?

[mattmanB182]

The I-173 is only "Cheap" in acrade mode, which does not bother me since I never play that.

I will get flamed for saying this, but I think the LA-7 is the cheapest plane in the other modes. I am not trying to rip the people that fly them, I actually like when people fly them because the challenge makes me a better pilot.

A high speed pass with a quick burst of my 30mm and the 153 is meat.

Perhaps by trying realistic or sim, you would be far less annoyed by the 153.
