Hey guys,

Lemme take a turn and start a small rant in here

What's everyone's favorite 109 in AH and why?

I'm flying my lovely F-4 version. Started flying it a while ago, while I still used to fly Warbirds. Now when I started AH it only seemed logical to start from where I left. Plus, it's the best turning plane of them all (I mean of those 109 versions available in AH). Nothing's better then to surprise people with how good 109 can acctually turn

Also, does anyone flies G-10? I seen a post yesterday with comparisionof 109 versions and it seemed like G-10 is not all the better then G-6.

Regards,

mx22

I like the G2. Its faster than the F and climbs faster. Dosen't turn quite as good but not bad. Had to change my sitck button set up to handle all the retrimming>

seems like I'm trimming the whole time I in the air.

see ya on line

I like the F4 best, but fly the G2 more. Nothing like running into an enemy 109 and it be a better climbing type with only marginally inferior turn.

I don't get it.

Why fly the G-6 when the G-10 is faster, and equal or better at everything else?

Must be the paintjob...

I'm am a little biased when it comes to the 109f4 but i think HT need to make some revisions on the low speed handling and especially the turn radii of the 109f4.. under 200mph the controls go mush but thats a whole nother story.

Rated in Order:

109f4 (currently the dogstar, low speed handling is mush and its turn radius at 200 mph is about te same as a G-10, Please Fix... other than that it holds energy around 300mph very well under light manuevering and is very fun to down aircraft with mg only... they can't shake you with a well managed throttle)

109g-10 (best fighter in the game; nothing can touch it when flown correctly... spit/pony dweebs die by the hundreds from this killing machine)

109g6 (good all around fighter but bubbles obstruct my view, well save this plane for Hartman WTB's...)

109g2 (Good fighter all around, nice to see 2 good luck charms on my wings)

regards,

DoctorYO

G10 for me, it's a twitchy little bastard, very tricky under wep but I fly it with Gondolas and 30mm, and go hunting buffs at 30k. A few cruises at 35k across a prime realestate path will surely bag you a high flying and lazy B17. A little dive, a snapspray with those 3 cannon and some MG and it's toast.

Plus if you go down lower it keeps your E fighting habits up strong, you don't dare turn the plane with that setup.

If your in range, so is the enemy.

109G-2 is the best

Can run, can turn, can climb.. eh...

Makes up for weak armament <G>

janneh · « **Reply #9 on:** January 25, 2000, 11:30:00 PM »

cc that Fishu

F-4 was my ride in ** and I still like it, but hey, G-2 has some traditions for us finns so it'll be G-2.

Hi,

It's me again here. I just looked at overall scores for all of the BF109 series and the thing is, neither of the planes is being able to obtain even the 1:1 kill ratio. How about we, guys who flew it for some time, offer some help to newbies with flying and fighting in these great machines? Also, maybe I should post this in the Help and Training message board? Comments welcome. Either replay here or send comments to mx222@concentric.net

Regards,

109 is the best !

But keep it a secret, will you ?

Totengraber · « **Reply #12 on:** January 27, 2000, 03:21:00 AM »

Sorry 109 fans, don't you notice the bug whit 109 at 20k? You can't make trim or auto-trim to work at this altitude. Even La5 is better than 109 at 20/25k.
Any coments?

Yours,

109 is the best plane for gaining and keeping the upper hand.

However, it needs time to kill, and thus suffers in an overpopulated arena.

E judgement ability is a must.

janneh · « **Reply #14 on:** January 28, 2000, 01:59:00 AM »

It seems, 109's K/D's are getting better all the time:

F-4 : 0.75
G-2 : 1.10
G-6 : 1.05
G-10: 0.80

Overall K/D: 0.92
