Exclamation the “meanest” fighter

Well Matt, at least you can be happy that the G-6 is the “meanest” fighter! With its three 30 caliber cannons you can saw wings off with ease.

If you just learn how to fly it to take advantage of its strength (Killing Power) and avoid “turning fights” with the Spits and La’s, (hope your wing man covers you) you can do really well In it.

I know what you mean about the 109 models. I personnaly find no difference in the way the G10 handles in comparrison to the G6. The F4 is an excellent dogfighter, the best of all 109s. But it just doesn't have the guns. It and the G2,G10,E3 seem to be all modeled the same when it comes to the guns. That is the reason pilots do not fly them, especially in sim mode. You just don't see them in competition. They won't deliver the kills. Also, as far as sim goes, the G2 has aweful camo. Maybe it works for the desert, but certainly not everywhere else! You just can't miss it. In arcade it doesn't matter. Everybody finds everybody thanks to target locater.

The G6 flies the best of the bunch; turns almost as well as any of them, fast as just about any of them, better damage than any of them. The only problem is the bounce when firing. It takes practice

The g6 is damn good and it just might win the deathmatch (if I can get it on). But try the f4 in sim. One excellent handling, very smooth, tight airplane. It's just the guns are peashooters compared to the g6.

Come on people!!! I NEED PILOTS!!!!! Just send me a note. Say on this thread or my other deathmatch thread you want in. I'll contact you. We gotta have a deathmatch tourney. By the way, if I didn't say so in this thread already, I'm tryin to put it together. So come on guys! I NEED PILOTS! Yes, even Poles and Chechs who can't speak English!!! YESSSSS!

I am not sure why you think it handles anywhere near as good as the others.

When I fly the F-4 or the G-2..I do not shy away from the turning fight with them. I find it funny that I can surprise a many of Spit pilot when they turn a few times, and my 109 is still on their tail.......The G-6 is a BRICK compared to these planes. I wish they had a decent damage model in the game....they should do a lot more damage then they do, even with the one cannon.

K-4 FTW !!!

even in 1vs1 situations u win. attack, lure them into a nose to nose combat and u will cut these british-paperplanes into pieces.
(k-4 was designed to intercept bombers. we all know that. but, are u informed about the strong front armorplates,against the tailgunners ? ^^ thats why u win the most of the nose to nose attacks)

My favourits plane in this game are the 109 (G2 and K4) and the 190 D9.. But i m agree with Kozzmo and David, my choice change with the number of players who are engaging in dogfigt!!
