Yeah I've seen you.
I suggested before you take a Ia and fight some good 109 pilots - which you didn't do at all
You took the 100 octane on the Blue side of the Repka server and I've seen you crawling on the deck with red spits. It's rather easy to be the only Spit on the blue side, picking the Spitfires that are involved in a fight with the Blue 109s and turn with them while they're being bounced. Very good tactics, I have no problem with that, just saying
You got some no-name pilots flying the Spitfires or 109s, turning on the deck. That is indeed a DF mince meat server with air-start and icons and any experienced pilot will do a lot of damage in such condition, no matter what he flies. You didn't get in fight with a single 109 flying higher up.
Yet, with lots of shared kills I've seen you bailing out or crash landing very often (that wouldn't happen to you so often in a 109 you know that
), I personally happened to attack you only 3 times, everytime you've seen me and tried to break but I had no problem to hit you hard (and I was flying the E-3, not E-4 with Minengeschoss) and you had to bale out immediately, so I am not sure about the Spitfire damage resistance). It can take some serious damage in the wings, I agree and I hope they will fix that at some point with the fuel tanks and other DM issues.
So again, get that Ia and fly some mid alt fights against good 109 pilot(s), chose Red when there are no 109s to help you and see how your K/D will be in that case.
And try to do the same thing on a server with overheating ON, you'll cook your engine in no time. Just for the record - you can fly on Repka at 3000rpm all the time, but normally your limit is 2600 with slightly more for shor periods of time (like 2850 for few minutes) and that's it. The 109s though will fly same rpm on Repka on ATAG or anywhere because that's the way it is.
