i tend to like seeing the c202's coming at me. i know that they're someone that's gonna fight me, no matter what....if they have the advantage(well...that's everyone), or even if they're at a serious disadvantage......it seems the guys that fly them just want to get down n dirty till someone dies a gruesome cartoon death.

Not to mention that they have trouble excaping most planes.

I'm not a pilot in the game, yet I still evaded two P-47's with a massive E advantage in my 109E. Even got one after a while. Unfortunatly, I lost sight of the other one and didn't see him creaping up on my 6.

I agree. I have usually flown the typhie and with the brief experience with the 205, I find it is harder to roll especially with alot of fuel. Flaps seem to deploy at a lower speed than you would like it to be but I think it just needs getting used to

You should avoid using flaps in 205 as much as possible. Once you deploy flaps you are almost doomed to a certain death.

Been flying it recently too. I fly it like a 109 naturally but find it lacks th rudder authority and the deployment rate of the flaps. to counter this I simply tend to do more negative maneuvers to enable myself to deploy flaps quicker. Had a great fight with WaX the other night, he in K4 I in 205. We spiralled downward from 15k to the deck and I could not seem to slow the plane down until I finally got below 185 mph. After pulling one notch of flaps I was able to get a shot on him but it was indeed a splendid fight and after that particular moment and the monster reversal/lag roll I performed on MUZIK I was convinced that the C205 is a worthy aircraft.

rather than starting a new thread, here may be a decent place to thank potsnpans for a fun fight, although he did spill a lot of aeroshell out of my #2 engine for me. he then dispatched the guy i had asked to stay out of the fight, and since i wasn't smart enough to take my broken pee38 home while he was distracted, he then came over and broke more pieces off of it for me.

If your out turnfighting zekes and F4Fs in a 205 or a 202, you're some kind of genius.

If you want to talk to someone that is exceptional in the 205 talk to potsnpans, he is the best I have seen in it since it came into the game.

+1....he is simply the best in that plane and don't kid yourself, he gets low and slow in it too...great flaps on that a/c.

You guys are really making me want to fly that thing again. Too bad I'm not any good in it.

I'd say it's performance is in between 109G6 and G2, the G2 being the better and boils down to time behind the wheel. When bringing 100% fuel, burn Aux. tank then manually select main and wait 5 seconds and then tap fuel select to auto burn wing tanks. If you like to be slapped like a clubbed footed St Louis Rams fan, then the 205V is for you, but dam its fun to fly.

I'd listen to Pots he's one of the best I've fought in the C models be a great person to duel also

I will take his advice.
Im glad to see that the C2 gets some respect. Most put off Typhy, LA, Pony, Spixteen and Nik drivers as typical what you would see in the MA. I think they get a bad rep because most use them as pork n auger or pick and run type planes and really dont fly them to their limits. It may mean more trips to the tower, but in the long run, you do become better in it
