Would like some 109 training

[Tr1gg22]

 I was wondering if someone would give me a hand at learning the 109k and g6.... I would be grateful... I want to get better in these AC and I believe I have hit a wall    TY

The 109 Gs are probably the best for dogfighting, the k is good for attacking and dogfighting but doesn't excell in either, it is okay for what it does. The 109 isn't known for its diving ability, but does have front wing slats which increase surface area, causing increased maneuverability. With a top speed of around 320-350 mph you can't outrun your enemies, rolls, loops, immelmans, etc can be used. This is not a simple plane such as the spitfire and requires time and effort to be able to fly it very well. There isn't one specific way to fly the 109, everyone has their own style and I have learned that time is the best teacher.

Agent, maz and a few others are the guys to see. 109 is a tremendous aircraft and very well suited to the MA's. It's a predatory plane and has to be flown with aggression. As a general rule its got an outstanding power band and excels in the verticals. Personally I think the G2 is the best of the bunch with the F close behind...if you go back a page or two I reposted a 109G2 sortie that might give you a bit of an idea...but guys like agent can push the plane far beyond my capabilities...

Tr1gg, I prefer to fly the 109F, and also suggest it to people new to the 109's.  Give it a try for a little bit if you want, and let me/us know what you think of it.  I think you'll like it.

Also, feel free to pm me for some 109 films if you want.  They might help give you a feel for the 109 before you start really getting into it.

109F?  Oh the humanity!

And why didn't ya say something when I kept running into that low 109F too btw?  Bastage!

I fine the earlier versions of the 109 dont have enough power over the planes they are flying against (spits) Thats why I like to stick with the K4 and the G14. K4 seems less stable at stall speeds then the G14 does but the G14 doesnt have as much power at the lower levels giving the K4 the ability to get out of hordes and gangs

The E and F models are the super turny birds of the 109 series. I was in the Training Arena one time, and I was keeping with a Spit, all flaps out, stall horn screaming, yet I was able to pull lead on it and got off a good burst that would have taken off the wing. I augered after that shot however, as we were headed up hill a little bit, and I stalled. Don't get too slow in it, but the 109F is a great plane to learn in.

I like the K4 but it is a little more advanced bacause of the 30mm and the turn rate compared to the other 109's.

These two will get in there and mix it up. Both are good at showing you the "skinny" side of their plane so it's hard to get a good shot on them. They fly in the vertical and takes chances that pay off most of the time. They are a threat even when out numbered because they watch the whole fight (SA) unfolding.

Fly like these guys and you'll do just fine.
