In the spitfire.

The carburettor "issues" really don't affect it very much at all.
Hi CptDoggles,
It is affecting me, while I am trying to aim at a 109 which is diving and rolling under my nose. When engine stutters
by following him I loose my speed when I can't take care about to avoid negative Gforces.

My favorite is the 109, mostly because it has that 100% MAN look that is characteristic to so many German mechanical things (Those mercedes's from the 80s, all things BMW, MP-40, luger, all panzers, etc.)

But performance-wise, I think the most notable advantage it gives in this game is its armament. Those 20mm with minengeschoss kill so fast, while in spitfire, sometimes I spend all of my ammo to down one bomber.

Well British Techdesign is not worse neither. The british RADAR design was superior. It helped not only to win the BOB, but the whole dammend war!
Ask "Q" about british gimmicks

Therefore the Hurricane is my second favorite, better firepower
