Why no E4s

That may be so but the points still apply.

I've seen no sign of hacked flying on either side on the ATAG Server, but I have seen some fine flying done by both (much to my chagrin at times).

Obviously you never saw that video posted on warclouds forums a few years back where a P-51 pilot explained the reason most people found the 51 to be "porked" was in fact because they can't aim at all.

The video showed him using short, controlled bursts at medium convergence to snap wings off, start engine fires, etc.

This is all before mods.

Yes, on AI IL2's from high 6 with their big wide wings which weren't evading. That 'short' burst is 2-3 seconds in the same spot - try that on a human opponent. I urge you to try it yourself though before you accuse others of being poor shots Doggles.

Hmm, nope, it was footage from warclouds. Nice try at turning it around on me though; I'm an average shot at best.

Didn't try anything mate. You said I missed. I generally hit about 8-10% consistently I seem to remember - what's wrong with that?

Did you ever fly them yourself?

*shrug* If you find that the P-51 from 1946 is bad or that you lose a lot of kills because of the weak 0.50s then you must be doing it wrong, because I've seen videos of guys online who do it right: 1-pass kills before the modders got their dirty little hands on the game.

Don't bother replying with something that you think is witty; it's obvious to me from your posts in this thread that you aren't interested in anything other than validating your already-held notions. So don't bother replying- I won't read it.

Yep.
