And again an unqualified message from somebody. I like the way, such guys say it without any proof. Just flying online, get shot and tell everywhere, that something is ubber. In the current version of the game, both are not modelled right and the spit has ubber advantages in th current state. So they will have to be nerfed. That there is still not clear, how the devs continue with the gasoline (87 or 100 octane) and many people are currently bashing each others about that special topic, we do not yet know about performances, that will appear in game.

So, it is a complete mess, what you are complaining.

Please stop whining here again abd learn to be better than the other pilots. If you are not able to shoot down enemies with your spitfire, than it is not the plane. It is you.

Sorry, but that is the whole truth up to now. Rest to be discussed later!

im with stublerone; the real good fighter pilots can fight a 109 or a spit with the crappiest plane. Is the man what counts, not the machine. I´m a pretty bad combat fighter but a good flyer and i will never ever consider blaming the plane, even if its nerfed or not.

I recommend you all to read "In pursuit", by johan kylander. A lot of good information to improove our combat skills, although it obviously needs a lot of practice. But isn´t practising, reading and learning some of the best things in aviation, simulation and life in general?

You know that scientists have new theories about the Big Bang where once a player in an online game admits "yeah, he beat me fair and square, I tried my best but he simply was better than me" the universe will collapse and start anew?

nah that happens in squads all the time when they fly with each other. On a dogfight server, now then the world would just detonate.

What intrigued me was that second seat. Living in Houston, Baton Rouge wouldn't be a long drive, if i could buy a ride in a FW-190.

There is no second seat. The headrest you see in the begining of the vid is the pilots rear armour that is attached to the canopy. It slides back with the canopy.
