Here I would disagree.

Sure the 109 can use his smaller size and slightly better control at low speeds in scissoring it out, but the outcome is maybe 51/49 for him and not hands down. Or he can extend after a nose-to-tail manouver and try to gain 100m after 5mins run in one direction, so he actually lost, given his task of controlling an given airspace or escorting some bombers, because he has left that airspace trying to gain energy. Otherwise a good hurricane can be on the six of the 109 in a nose-to-nose manouver of a what so ever good 109 pilot fast enough to have one good chance of hitting and the one hitting first in 1vs1 is mostly the winner and the Hurricanes 8x0.303 simply wins.

So I in the 109 would go for a hook-up manouver and in the hope the Hurricanes misses his first chance of hitting me and I don´t and then scissor it out, because I would define running away for a better E-situation as an lost encounter. I would be interested in how you would win against a Hurri on co energy hands down?
