I don't normally correct people's spelling... but

Please .....please .....learn how to spell Messerschmitt.

The way you've spelled it, makes me think of a cross between a messerschmitt and a mitchell, with cheese

.... compared to the Hurri and the Spit, the BF109 in CloD turns like a lame duck. In how far that is "realistic" I dont know, bet in reality it turned much better than in the "simulation".

But I found out that they (Spit & Hurri) are not so hard to shoot down, you just have to practice deflection shooting ( I guess that`s what the german "mit Vorhalt schiessen" translates?). Even on the deck above an enemy airbase it is not impossible to shoot them down.

When you are still flying several hundred meters behind the Spit shoot a short burst at it. Doesent need to hit, just makes the pilot aware there is someone behind him. He will automatically like all the reds start turning into your direction. Just check if he starts turning left or right then bring your nose into a position in front of his turning direction and shoot.
The probability to get a serious hit is high. Once he is hit (not killed) it`s over with his superior maneuverability and you get him.

One factor that is also important, "luck" of course.

You are correct, except for the fact that, compared to a Spitfire or a Hurricane, the 109 DID turn like a duck (especially compared to a Hurricane). So, everything you have said (related to that subject) is totally wrong.

Additionally, as I have said before, there has been no instance EVER, in the history of ALL AIR COMBAT on this planet, where one aircraft out-turned another aircraft. NEVER!!!!

PILOTS have out-turned OTHER PILOTS, but not planes.

The success of the 109s against the British fighters came from the German tactics, not the aircraft. That is why the pilots hated Goering so much when he began requiring them to fly close escort on the bombers. It nullified their advantage against the British aircraft and they suffered the price for it.
