A6M5 vs F4U-1C
It's great.
If you're an Allied pilot in the CT.

Thats why we run the "C-Hog vs A6M5" set up twice a month. It used to be the A6M2 but it turned to good.

Yup, the A6M5 was way too Uber for the Chog to handle. From now on CT Pac setups will only allow the A6M2 unless the Allies get the F4U-4 or the Tempest so they can cope with the A6M5.

I was in a great Tempest vs. 51D matchup last night.  Went on for quite a while.  Wasn't slow, a lot of looping and trying to turn into the other's circle.  Eventually the temp got a snapshot.  Seemed pretty equal though.  My only complaint (being in the pony) was that I couldn't get up enough speed in the merge....

Spit14 V 190d9

oh, and last night I had a blast dodging a typhoon with my stuka.  I guess he ran out of fuel, because he ended up landing, and I blasted him on the ground.

Virage is a great flyer! had one of them stale mate type fights but he won out in the end, got to admire the way he can fly that 109G2!

f4U-1 is what I was in

P38 vs Spit9, nothin but good fights.

I think a 190 vs a p38 is really kind of a joke, unless its a zoom competition, otherwise p38 will rip it apart under 200mph.


fm2/spit9 is also good.



P-38 will beat a FW-190 in a zoom fight.
