Fwiw, unless you're in the weeds, the 109K-4 is faster than the La-7.  Stay above 5k and they're not so dangerous.
even at 5k the la7 outmanouvers the k4   ;)

Yea, I was disturbed to learn the La7 out-turns the F6F w/ and w/o flaps.  :O

not neccesary if you have half an atom of skill or acm knowledge.

 Half an atom of skill or acm itself isn't at all necessary when you can simply choose the fastest planes and pick your fights...

 But, nice try.

Even if you have luxury of choosing your fights, you still have to fight and that's when ACM applies. Unless of course, running and picking counts as fighting, or you're so good that you can fight at 400+mph speeds.

Hey now, the pilots of high-wingloading aircraft wouldn't have to run if the rest of you didn't turn so much. :D

low-wingloading aircraft wouldn't have to run if the rest of you didn't turn so much. :D

Low wingloading is normally better for turning than high wingloading (depends on CL)

 Oh I agree it can be boring Mip, but that was never the point.

Actually, I don't think either of them were equipped with a search bar...
