Question about Flying Tank Trophy

[Korsakov829]

I can finish a training mission in 17 seconds average, +13 seconds to load a game. Might take about half an hour to get it.

Please excuse me for asking, but how fun is that ?
Why don´t you combine it with some other trophy ?

I did the same thing as korsakov and it was actually more fun because I kept trying to beat my fastest time.

I prefered not to fly the Il-2 series that much online as I feel its overpowered and I tend to go with the underdog planes. (I felt so cheap while I was unlocking the IL-10 weapons online)

Underdog planes: I-153, Po-2, Il-4, He-162, Ta-152, Fw190-F8. My favorite is the Po-2. Dominates CTA in all modes, I love it in a 1vs1.

Underdog fighters in typical 1945 Sim Dogfights: Mustangs, Thunderbolt, FW190, Bf110, MC202, He163, Me262, yak1, yak9. A-20, Blenheim and Ju87 (using forward guns only)

Semi-underdogs: 109E/F/G2/G10, Yak-3, Hurricane and Spitfire mkII (too slow), IL-2 (Too much armour but defenceless).

Bigdogs/Cheapdogs: I-16 and I-153 (there will always be plenty of newbs who try to out turn you), Me109G-6 and K-4 (Godcannons), Spitfire IX and XVI, La-5 and La-7, IL-2M and IL-10 (too much armour and oh my god is that a howitzer in the back seat?) Edit: Forgot about the Me163 on unlimited ammo, that thing is an untouchable killing machine.

Lmfao.

I wouldn't say the BF-109 E-3 and Fw-190 D9, A20G are that bad. A20G is really decent in Realistic. The BF-109 E-3 is decent in CTA, and the 190s can sure hell shoot down a B17 in no time.

because i don't like flying the IL-2 and I'm racing my brother to a platinum trophy, also I sit and watch TV like the West Wing, or Boston Legal while I do it, so I dont have to focus, just shoot down an HE-111 every 30 seconds

I shoot down a Po-2. Average of 17 seconds, best time 13 seconds. I just got the trophy yesterday. What helps me pass the time is viewing the differant time and weather setting combinations.
