Why does everyone become obsessed with the Bf-109? That really seems to be the most constant obsession on the list! Why do you all love her so much?
If I really thought about it, its a lot like an obsession with the 911.
-Both are so ugly they are beautiful.
-Both were designed with serious inherent flaws.
-Both were continuously re-engineered, not to fix the flaws, but to mask them.
-Both, despite being old, worn out, designed decades prior and totally outclassed by modern rivals... somehow hold their own against them.
-Both sound really, really good when the throttle is wide open.
From a game perspective, my gunnery has always sucked... so in AW, I unknowingly gravitated towards E-fighting in the vert because a roped aircraft was a lot easier for me to hit than one rolling all over the damned place. 109's and 38's have their strengths here.
