It was probably us in 56RAF ;)

The 109s are definitely a bit slow. I reckon the Hurris we fly are about right.
Usually the 109 escapes unless he's foolish enough to turn back. Teamwork can help too, if one of us keeps high we can take advantage of the thinner air while the other chases to occupy the 109.

Actually we're pretty vulnerable in a vertical turn fight.The 109 has excellent low speed turning capability, whereas we Hurris have a tendency to stall a wing - fatal on the deck.

S!
