C.205
« Reply #15 on: December 29, 2004, 12:43:11 PM »
The 205 is my main fighter ride.. I've got close to 7-1 k/d ratio in it.. Climbs great, accelerates like a bullet in a dive, holds speed very well in the vertical climb, turns well at high speeds, has good low speed manuverability, fairly decent gun package... Whats there not to like?? Although i have been flying the P-38 alot as of late.. Its more of a challenge.  :D

202s are better/more fun

Just started flying the C.205 last night and I like it. Visibility out of it is generally better than the 109's IMO and while it doesn't sip E like the Spit it's no slouch in that department either.

Harder to stay alive in than it used to be, arena is full of late war monsters.

Visibility is its weakest point.


I would think that you could trash a low and slow 51 in anything, no?  Trashing a co-e 51 though would be a different story :D

The only defense the P-51 has over the 205 is speed given equally skilled pilots..

I like the 205 and 202.
Only, the 202 is underarmed.
They perform excellently at high speeds BTW...
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
