Some play with PCs and joystick/mouse and some play with small screen handsets with slower CPU. The ones using PCs have distinct advantage because they have clearer screen with a lot of pixels to focus and target the enemy. Others have very little capacity to do that and a small movement of handset makes big slide on targeting. So from the start of the game some people have clear advantage and there is nothing even Zup can do about it. So you have to make use of every chance you can have and develop your tactics based on your device's capabilities.
I use an android mobile phone for example and it is very deadly for me to go head-on shooting. Hence I try to shoot at back (like dog fighters did in real life in WWI).
Another thing is that I use everything game allows me. If it allows shooting planes with tank even though they're immune to bullets I don't mind using it. If it is an illegal action then game shouldn't allow this or let planes take-off faster than tank refilling time or keep planes immune against tanks as well.
In older versions of the game tank refilling time was longer than a plane's take-off time (this was when we had Leopard tanks instead of Renault ones). So planes could take-off before a tank fire. But in newer versions of the game you can buy faster tank refilling which makes the refilling time faster than any plane's take-of time. This is a bug in the game and probably Zup ignored this or forgot this timing when he have the option to buy this faster tank refilling opportunity.
So spawn killing is a subjective term. If you're protecting your team mates getting killed by enemy then in my view all killing is legal and there is no spawn killing. Namely best enemy is the one on ground in dogfighting so that they cannot hurt you and your team mates.
Consecutive spawn killing is also subjective. If my team mate carrying flag uses a Siemens plane then he can escape back to our base fast enough so one killing may be enough to buy him some time but if he is using an Albatross plane for example then enemy will catch him easily with their faster planes so you need to keep them on ground until your team mate disappears from radar.
If this is a war game there is no mercy in war and game should emulate this if it claims to be realistic.
Just to let you know, tank spawnkilling is bannable. Want to keep you bravado "this is a war game" commmentary, that up to you. This game is intended to be fun. I always like to fly in a way that makes it fun for everybody, not just me. I personally think that this type of thinking and playing doesn't add anything to the game or community and makes one look like an asshole.
I play on an Android phone as well. Don't make excuses for device ability. The best players in the world have been on a phone or tablet. Adapt and overcome (within reason of the game rules) or quit playing. Pretty simple.
