Whats your current favorite planes to fly?

[Mukai]

Hey guys, noticed that a poll for this topic a few months back but I was wondering about the updated consensus. 
As I'm new to flying il2:bos I find these kinds of polls handy for figuring out what planes are popular and what isn't. Which can help new players get to grips with whats good or not

If I've missed any currently available aircraft let me know and I'll edit

Good initiative! lets have an idea about the popularity of aircrafts

[II/JG17_HerrMurf]

Fw-190, seriously. It has it's flaws but when you have a head of steam and six guns to play with.................................................................

[Trooper117]

Where's my option for 'All of the above' ?  

[IRRE_Centx]

Yaks and il-2s

 

I discovered the fun of the il-2 37mm canons against tank columns some weeks ago, love it :D

"Faviourite side" lack option for "both". I'll gladly add input on my favourite planes, but don't want to boost results of one side since I fly both.

I generally prefer the Soviet fighters and German bombers/ground attackers. Currently i fly Yak-1b and Mig-3 quite a bit and the Ju 88 and Bf 110 mostly on the German side, as well as the 109 G-2 (and its successor  ).

Give the La-5 some love....it is an excellent airplane and great fighter!!  

 

And it has the right engine....round...a round engine is what God intended man to fly with, everything else is blasphemy.

[Mukai]

Well it seems the 110 is much loved, I can see why too. Only started recently but I'm really enjoying ground pounding in the 110 as well as the JU88 and HE111 (though my gunners seem to be asleep in the HE?)

Have tried them all, presently flying mostly the Yak-1 and Mig-3.

 

The Yak does not excel in any one area, but is very good all around, easy to fly and very forgiving.

 

Currently also trying to master the Mig-3, it has a lot of qualities, but is very high maintenance.

[Finkeren]

After a long time flying the MiG-3 more than all other planes combined, I'm taking it easy and having fun with the Yak-1b.

[216th_Lucas_From_Hell]

LaGG-3 and MiG-3 for fighters, the 1942 Il-2 (without the rear gunner) and the 1941 Pe-2 for bombers. I realise they aren't the best at anything, but they've got their own charm.

[Monostripezebra]

pe2 series 35, looks good, flies good and is multipurpose
