I don't think making a frankenplane out of one side is going to accurately represent relative dogfighting capabililties.
Really? No difference? This says a lot about your 'feel' because there's a world of difference.

The second part, he never suggested that, we want 2 models which are reasonably representative of each, + the 109 versions. By representative I mean reasonable accuracy on speed, ROC, roll and turn at respective heights and speeds. Followed by reasonably representative DM's for each type of weapon.

I suspect that you'll have an argument for that, ask for all that rot which degenerates the thread.

You misunderstand the term frankenplane btw. It was coined from the practice of producing a particular type by using model files from pieces of another type which are similar enough. The FM was never pieced together like that, they are new files.

That might be your particular definition but I think everyone knows what he meant by "frankenplane."

I'll be back; I have to go pick up more Pedantic from the grocery store

You would think the devs would have an entire library of stuff from the last title. However I suppose even if you did you would have to sit down and read an entire library
