Could an FW190-D run down a ME-163C at 100ft?

But the next mode up realistic is crap for two reasons

1. No bugger bar a hardcore few play it, so you can wait for hours for a decent game.

2. You so much as sneeze and your stalling!

I don't know what Realistic your flying on, but the one I fly on from time to time, I have no problem with stalls. Just because the stall indicator comes on from time to time, doesn't mean your screwed right away. Just keep an eye on your speed, and make sure it doesn't go down below 120 or so, and you won't stall. You'll just be on the edge of stalling really?
But I prefer simulator, and that is a piece of work which I highly enjoy.
