this may be true, but then to extend the argument, in late war scenarios the luftwaffe would have to be horrifically outnumbered, out-skilled, under supplied with fuel, ammunition and spares, and reliability would have to be far reduced as well.

however, where is the fun in that?

I'm saying that it's not historically accurate, but then again it's hard to re-create a historically accurate scenario.. the fighting skills of people involved in the sim are far superior to the real guys who went up there and didn't have much if no fighting experience at all.. most of us have been playing sims for 10+ years and learned a lot of tricks, whilst those poor guys sent up to fight sometimes didn't even survive their first mission
