Spitfire XIV .... ouch!

During 1942, italian air force pilots had C.202s and the C.200s. Those were the best fighters they could field. Should PYRO model a rollin plane set we would not whine in order to get 1943-44 fighters, like the C.205, the 109G-6 and the 109G-10. We will get what we built and had in that phase of the war.
"And one of the finest aircraft I ever flew was the Macchi C.205. Oh, beautiful. And here you had the perfect combination of italian styling and german engineering .... it really was a delight to fly ... and we did tests on it and were most impressed." - Captain Eric Brown

You guys, this sounds pretty funny to a mostly neutral outsider.

Luftwobbles: All Allied planes are inferior! German iron shot them down in great carload lots!

Allied Imperialist Opportunists: So, wait a minute... we didn't win this war? Allied aircraft shot down Germans in greater carload lots... yada, yada, yada, yada...

I fly mostly American planes. It's not a personal thing. I just can't fly the Axis planes!  

Someone made a good point up there. The year shouldn't determine how a plane is compared. It's performance and design should.

Tally ho!
