Hurricane & Spitfire control characteristics

I suggest you guys back off Osprey, clearly he's still in a state of aggravation from the Spit II's FM's being brought back to reality, further degradation of the wonderful properties of the Spitfire are just a bit to handle right now, especially since it seems that the devs backed the Spitnerf with a bit more oompf to the 109.

I can remember flying against Osprey on ATAG, he's an excellent pilot, any time he got shot down, was simply due to undermodelling the Spits and Hurri's, and the continued undermodelling of said craft will force an undue burden of learning upon those who's planes clearly cannot keep up with their skill.

Well I didn't mean to upset you about the slats von Bruhl. My comment was driven by Biff stating that the 109 couldn't be stalled. Had he said it about the "Spitnerf" (thanks for demonstrating your level of parity to us) then I'd have called him up on that too.

Is this a standard post you put up with a parameterised name though? Go check my stats on ATAG, I have no problem with that, you won't find many probably but you will find I that I don't get shot down very often. You're very unlikely to find a single Spitfire II sortie though, a few Spitfire I (2 stage) and Hurricane Rotol but that's it. My main gripe is putting a ton of lead into some 109 driver only for him to run away back home when he should be going in really. I'm not sure why you needed to attempt a character assassination when you could've just provided some examples though.

Do you fly as Von Bruhl? I'll have a look, I'll wager you can't live without mineshells.......
