For most of my online flying time (bout 12 years now) I've flown the 190s.
In Air Warrior the A8 and A4. For those of you who played Air Warrior you'll recall it was the most wicked aircraft to fly in the game. At 200kias or below if you tugged on the stick a tad to hard you turned into a Frisbee. It's departure was evil to say the least. I got it in enough flat spins to cut down 3 acres of Hay.
In AH it's modeling is much more forgiving. Thankfully!
Been flying the 109s more now....most exclusively the G10. No Gondolas.....just the 30mm with the mgs. Lots of throttle work flying the G10....I usually chop throttle when on 6 of enemy plane to hold his 6. Torque seems to take it outside the turn radius when on an enemy so throttle work imho is imperative. Don't turn fight it wide open....cycle through chopped, full, WEP etc when flying it. It turns very well at it's optimum cornering speed.
To fast you'll fall outside of radius...to slow you'll get inside but danger of stalling increases. Thus blowing E and ending up being the chased instead of the chaser.
The F-4 is a hoot to fly....does everything fairly well and keeps you in a turnfight longer....fewer blackouts, less throttle work because of it's lower top speed. Never use the Gondolas in my case. Want the aircraft clean to make better use of it's aerodynamics. Just my 2 Cents.
