I try to stay away if I don't have a wingman

We fly at different timezones so we never really meet on ATAG, I know =AN= fellas are flying high and so is quite a few of other pilots I know. I would not say Mk.II outperforms the 109 up there, I'd say the performance gap is not as big as at lower altitudes and by deploying some decent team tactics it is possible to have a nice and even(-ish) fights. You can't really dominate a pilot with equal skill even up there. Despite the ususal tactics of running home when things get hotter I am really having fun with higher alt dogfights with the 109s.

As for flying low - I guess it's the same on both sides, only certain squads bother climbing. You can't generalise and also, not everybody enjoys flying at 20k when the skies are empty because the blues are somewhere at 1km above Hawkinge (Manston, Lympne...). Fair enough. It's when I see the I./JG26 boys or our JG26 lads joining when I know the real fun and challenge begins and I climb from my 15000 to 20000 feet. All the best on the US side of the ATAG mate.
