Been there yesterday and had a blast. I was escorting a group of italien bombers at 6500 meters above the english coast when I noticed two spots to the lower behind. Going down on them in a wide turn downwards they revieled themselves to be a Spitfire and a Hurricane climbing behind the bombers.
I got the Spit in my first past and saw it diving trailing smoke the last time before going for the Hurricane. After a bit of great dogfighting he lost a wing and went down like a stone. Unluckily in both cases I only got a "killed KI" message.
After that I went down the coast and looked for easy prey, just to be hit all of a sudden by two Spits. I got my ailerons shot out and a red screen immidiatly with some evil shaking in the cockpit. Managed to get back to the french coast before that Spit driver delivered his coup de grâce. After respawning, before taking off I used the time the engine required to warm up again to have a cig (really neeed that one after the last sortie) and have a look around. It was at that point that a spitfire started to attack the airfield and strafed warming up and taking off aircraft. Now I am not impressed by pilots that attack planes on the ground (but consider it a legit tactic), but the sights and sounds cooming with this attack were absolutely stunning. Felt like being there and gave a good impression of what it must have felt like sitting on the ground and being attacked by aircraft. The roar of the engine, the impression the Spit gave while climing, turning and coming back again, guns blazing, simply fantastic.
Overall the server delivered great perforamance, the best so far I've seen, lots of pilots active and a really great atmosphere and communication between pilots.
Consider ATAG my new standart server. =)
