Spitfire pilots get the pots and pans out I'm ready to duck.

i don´t know why, but 109´s sound of the turbocharger always sends a shiver down my spine, that´s just nasty.

I like Hurricanes... It's a sexual perversion?

I stick with Spits but saw the ME109's in flight at Duxford, they were stunning and up close even more so. I would never argue which is the better because much depends on the pilot.

109 sexiest than the spit, in performance is up to the pilot
i always will pic a 109 when there's no 190 in the hangar

Easy mistake to make, with the centrifugal compressor it sounds much more like a turbo charger than a typical mechanical blower. What a loverly noise!

I have to admit that I'm flying the Spit mostly in Clod, but once the Friedrich comes along, you'll need a crowbar to pry me out of the cockpit.
