The only one that isn't good for MA play is the E-4. But, even that one is fun.

The F-4 is better for slower flying (you'll give Spitfires a real surprise!), and its not as slow as you'd expect.
The G-2 is pretty great all around, good speed and climb rate, and good turn performance as well.
The G-6 is basically like the G-2, except that the 7.9mm MG17 cowl guns are replaced with 13mm MG131's. The increase in firepower is, IMO, enough to warrant the small decrease in turn performance and climb, and the slightly larger speed deficit from the G-2.
The G-14 performs basically like the G-6, but it has an MW-50 boost system so on WEP it's pretty sweet. Great climb & speed, but it's also heavier (read: worse turn performance) than the earlier 109's.
The K-4 is the ultimate evolution, borderline-uber 109 which is extremely fast and has a great rate of climb. The only downside to the K-4 is that it can only equip the 30mm Mk108 cannon, which, though devastating is difficult to learn to use.

In pretty much all cases, when engaging contemporary aircraft the 109 is a vertical fighter.

What he said.

If youre trying to learn the type, start with the F4 and work your way up to the K4.  Spend the most time in the G2 and the G14 as they represent the best transition models.

I honestly think I'm picking up love for the 109 again. I havent been doing good yet, but so far, I get 1 kill per sortie in a 109 :lol

Well said Motherland. My ideah for this thread was to get an overall ideah of a LW 109 for my hanger. All of which are in my hanger. I been flyin the g14, lately gaining alt , taking care of fighters and bombers.  I have a squaddie (Jerlle) who fly's the k4 every sortie.  Personally, i am looking for the 109 that can kill fighters and bombers with alt in the MA...
Please specify your loadouts in future posts...
As of right now, i like the g14 with a drop , 2 cans and gondola's added...... Tuk151 :rock

Been trying the 109's out recently - only issue I've found with them is:-

G14, has an odd stall, not difficult to get out of, just odd

K4 - has some handling quirks when it gets slower (and I cant hit with the tater lol...)
