The 109 has from what I experienced a better roll-rate at low speeds than Hurricane and Spits, which is an advantage in scissors. It is also nice to handle at low speeds. I don´t know about Spit or Hurricanes but from what I`ve seen they seem to have more difficulties in flying controlled slow.
I still have quite a way to go, but I just had a little airquakeing on the ATAG server and think it is the best way to get to know a plane, by not B&Z but just throwing yourself into the thick of the battle low and slow.
If you have managed that, you can B&Z with the comfort of knowing, that you can also get along, if you have to help you mate, without the comfort of excess energy.
Sure it is the best tactic to stay fast and out of range, but if you really want to learn your plane, you should know how it handles at stall speed fights.
