Let us see... that is almost every plane except Stukas, Ju-88s and B-25 tards going after the CV only to dart into the sea or Kamikaze. (For me)  ;)

K4's are probably high on my hate list, largely because they're the most difficult opponents.

I agree but the fact that they were in a Spit16 always negates what could have been so special.

The Spit-16 is really no different from other Spitfires. It just has more power. A spit 8 is almost a Spit-16 and yet people treat it as a skilled pilots plane. I perfer the Spit-8, but I fly the 16, because everyone is in LA's and Tempests and 51's, so the more power I have, the happier I am.

Fact is...nobody considers a spit 8 a skilled pilots plane......You might be able to get away with saying the Spit 5 isnt easy mode but even thats easy to get kills in.

This is correct. I should have said Spits period and not just Spit16's. The exception being the Spit1. The only thing difficult about the 5 is the limited ammo but that is such a common problem in so many other good planes it really doesn't count.  I'll withhold judgment on the 14 because I never fly it but it is purported to be difficult.
