Is it my imagination or are there more clouds too? I haven't noticed any difference on my system, though.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one having trouble with the spit 1a. I find it very difficult to fight against a 109 on the deck due to the lack of power. Pretty much restricted to B&Z with the 1a so I'm finding myself in the hurricane much more often. Turning isn't too fun though.

Thats why I have voted to allow SpitII for the ATAG server for the RED`s, even when the FM is correct or rong many topics present, but the SpitII is given the prober fear of a Spitfire. The current Spit I-Ia is just ridiculous easy to fight below 4000m. You need to worry about a Hurrican Rotol more in case of speed and climb performance....

When I ask my grandfather what he had to fear over the channel, it was the Spitfire and not so much the Hurrican. Anyway, the lobby for realism, and BLUE side had and has his run against the SpitII....

Hurri Rotol can keep up with the 109 but can't climb as fast I find, spit is a very slow but in the hands of a okay pilot you can still get your fair share of kills using Bnz and it's turning rate means that any 109 that tries to turn with is not gonna walk away unscathed.

Spit 2 I didn't mind but there's no denying it wiped the floor in all areas compared to the 109... faster, climbs better etc...

I know what you are saying, for me the gap between Spit I-Ia compared to a 109 is just too big in the other direction too, soo, either way is a bit weird lol

Yes but if the reds flew in hurris and spits they could use the spits advantages to remove the hurris disadvantages... You can't do that when all blues have is a 109

I got my fair share of kills in a spit, this week I took the hurri up and was surprised how good it was, only turning was bad and you could still keep up with a 109 in a turn.

Sorry Krupi but it doesn't. The only reason I get as many kills as I do is because so many 109 drivers are complacent in my opinion, knowing that even when hit they have a very high chance to run home anyway. They behave predictably so I've learned to position myself accordingly. I am astonished at the rate of turn of some 109 drivers though.

I expect a big change, the gap between Hurricane and 109 in speed and climb should rightly widen and I will find things tougher. Effectively, today, the Hurricane and Spitfire roles are reversed. If the patch isn't utter junk I expect way more 109's to start falling out of the sky to Spitfires, and the Hurricane to become the workhorse.

Exactly. It should just plain out-turn the 109 afaik. http://www.wwiiaircraftperformance.o...ricane-109.pdf Point 6 is particularly interesting.


Sorry, OT.

Hurri does keep up with a 109, easily with the current FM's slightly slower perhaps but not a lot in it.

I find it difficult to keep up if the 109 is diving, easy if he is climbing. I've had several comments from 109 pilots online about how the hurricane shouldn't be able to climb that fast. They were insinuating I was using a modded FM!

Trim it correctly and use the right boost/pitch settings and the rotol is great.

+1 I only just started using the Rotol this week its arguably the best fighter atm lol.
