Hi Robert.. not until there are new planes &/or tiers.. the current hangar stats are obviously inaccurate.. so unless the D.III starts outperforming the D.V. etc. I am not planning on making any changes to it.
One thing though, I don't know if it's my perception or the plane's actual performance, but the Frank Baracca Nieuport (the white one with the prancing horse on it) seems to perhaps gotten faster in turning, it's literally as quick as a top tier plane now.. or at least very very close!

Holy... I must try that asap... gotta save up for that Nieuport... It's 3-3-4 stats certainly hide that ability...

I will be updating this thread once the Flying Razor and other planes become available... or perhaps when I get the 4.4.53 update for Windows 8.1

But for right now be aware that this thread no longer applies to the new planes lineup.

And for me right now all my top tier planes fly like the Red Brick of old. :S

hmm i don't know how that rumor began. I've never said there would be a level 32. My focus is on squadron wars.

Well I THOUGHT it was you who said it in World Chat at the time.. but I suppose it may have just been an imposter.

Ok, ok... I know I should be updating this thread soon to account for all the new planes... well, maybe not the WWII planes lol! I'll think about it, but perhaps it would be better to start a new one from scratch!

When this game only had five planes on each side my pick for a Best Buy was my beloved SPAD...

Now with all the different choices available my current choice for the Zebra Approved Best Buy is the Fokker Dr.1

Able to fly successfully against top tiered planes yet far less expensive.. it gets my vote!
