This is not a criticism, i just wonder of the fairness of these matchups.
It's a fair question, and of course you're right that this isn't historically accurate. However we've tested the P-51 against all variants of the Bf109 series, and the truth is that the P-51 is going to have a hard time even against the E3. This is because the Club is flying the P-51 in full sensitivity, in cockpit only and without HUD. If you've flown the P-51 in these settings you know what I'm talking about. No limitations how you fly the E3.

Yo Shadowcorp... Let's give it a go. Can't hurt nothing but our pride to try it out

Good to see Chowbirds on 2.

sorry McQ not my bag, sorry to deprive you of a wingman; but scrabbling across the ground in a fw190 or being left in the dust in a E3 just doesn't sound right.

Thats BS McQ.
I saw you dancing at 2 am, saturday the 11 of july in Gillys tent at that campsite at Duxford.
Or were you trying to get out of the tent to take a leak ?
I cant quite remember, but it sure looked kinda like dancing...........

No woories mate. Gilly, Dave, Jack, me and a few other lads had a cpl of good missions. I took out the E3 for a spin

But just to check out if I got this right... Do you guys skip the bombers and the escort-role for the P51's?

Thanks mate.

No we're not skipping the bombers and escort missions, the Aerial Battles are just the first of hopefully many more games to come, will create some missions that will involve bombers and other airplanes (not dissimilar to the bombing runs according to Gilly).

We chose the Aerial Battles as the first game to build up a good number of Jerry pilots for future games.

How's the E3 doing?

Keep dancing mate
