No real offense taken Storch, my skin is not that thin.
I did use to fly the 109G2 quite often as a furball/base defense ride (way before the latest version). These days I only get to fly a couple of hours a week so I stick with my favorites (P47D11 for fights, Mossie for attack and spit 14 to get killed in a perk ride). I don't have time to test other planes too much.
Since the flight model of the G2 did not change, I can only complain on the forward view in the new version and I'm not sure it is very much off if at all. It turns extremely well and I felt confident to mix it with spit IXs (the 5 was another issue), also knowing I can disengage the fight. Todays with spit 16 that might be more of a problem.
Now that said, I sucked in it, but had fun. You have to remember that for a jug flyer, trying out a 109 feels like gravity was turned off.
It does have some instabilities at low speeds that are not as severe in other planes in which you'd expect it. Saying 109s "suck" in AH is not true, nor will help your case. Saying that they are better in IL2 is irrelevant (perhaps they are overmodeled there? or the rest undermodeled?). Please point exacly to their "suckage" reason or where are they undermodeled. No pilot anecdotes as one never have the full details from them. No kill statistics. No comparing to other games.
My pet plane is supposed to zoom better and dive quicker than most opposition according to stories. In AH it is a mediocre or below in zoom and the only thing you'll catch in a dive is the ground eventualy. Maybe the stories were exhagerated or MA conditions are different or AH is off. I can't tell. I can only ask the better experts here, investigate it myself or keep quite and play. I chose the last option.
