I've read on here about 109's doing @ 450kmph straight and level. I've even managed well over 400kmph myself in one of my 2 flights as a novice.
450kmph = 280mph. You cannot do that in a Hurricane straight and level, best I ever get is about 250ish. That fits in with 109's pulling away easily, which they can and do. I always have to catch them napping.

Are you sure you aren't confusing '109' with '110' ? That does about 250mph. I'm getting good climb now though, yet to try a chase of a 109 in the climb though.
