ME-110
P-39
Illuysion IL-10 Stormovick (I know I misspelled the hell outta that  
JU-87 Stutka
JU-88
190-d9 - d13

Brewster model 239 Buffalo, in finnish colours, please!

If I could choose a specific paint scheme, I'd probably pick BW-393 "Orange 9" of Capt Hans "Hasse" Wind, the world's top scoring Brewster ace. He scored a total of 75 victories during 302 sorties, making him the second ranking Finnish Air Force pilot. Of his 39 Brewster kills, 26 were claimed in BW-393.  The rest of his kills were achieved flying the 109 G-2 and G-6.  Wind received the Mannerheim Cross twice.

FAF achieved a kill-to-loss ratio of 32:1 with the Brewsters, during over 3 years of combat in 1941-44.

A fixed 109G10.

The effects the "prop drag" has on it are pure bull manure from what I've read  .

I like to fly it near the absolute safe limits (that also means I get into defensive situations where acceleration and snapshots are the keys to survival). My performance in this area has gone down quite a bit since "prop drag" was introduced.

I must say that I don't need 190D9, I need Brewster Buffalo  

I must try that 109G10 sometime again, because my two flights, first flights at all in AH after months, were good success with only remark - it isnt really smart to scratch your plane onto flying wreckages that just lost half of the surfaces.

Remark for folks like torque; this isn't "oh I am so good" quote, but that I didn't find anything wrong in 109G10 those times for my wonder. (just little extra note: its stall speed seems lower than it was, doesn't stall so easy)

But well.. LW planes are welcome to be better

fishy, try making an installation of 1.02 of Ah, fly the G10, notice acceleration and lack of slip to down and left after vertical input.

Then try v 1.03  

If you cannot notice the difference, you are not a 109 driver

Hey!!!  Stop harrassing innocent people on the BBS!    

If its up to me, AH will have a BW before a Dora.    But in any case, a dora would be nice, indeed.

Where from you get cannons for it?
Should be 6x.50...? (doublechecks F6F-5..)

Fishu, go check out the "Votes for F6F Hellcat, now that the Zero is here?" thread in this forum, where its being discussed.

From the F6F-5 onward, it was possible to mount x2 20mm cannons, plus x4 .50's. Now, how many of the day fighter versions that were actually armed like this is in doubt.

But many of the F6F-5N's (Night Fighter versions) definitely had the mixed cannon and MG armament package.
