I would pay an extra $5 a month for a 410 and 110 option without tail guns.  :pray

After witnessing some bombers bailing on the way to the target, before even being seen; twice today. I want to retract this wish.

Obviously with the time needed to invest in a bomber run, its hard enough for bombers to accomplish missions let alone reach their target for non b-29 players...

I think a 410 with the bk5 and a few tons less might be too much for the current culture to handle.

I fly both the 410 and the mossie and found the best way to fly them is to HO, that being said the 410 wins hands down (most will hate me, but if you are dumb enough to HO a 410 than you deserve it.....)
But If you have to manuver thats when things get a little tricky.....and I think if the 410 has a altitude advantage than he has a good chance at winning.....

I have flown the mossie only a few times...crazy guns.....flying brick......never flown the 410....
but I disagree with everyone saying that the 410 has no chance against the mossie.....
everyone should know it is the pilot that is who you are fighting..... get a noob in a mossie and a vet in a 410 the mossie dies
As someone who regularly flies the Mossie as a fighter, I can tell you that it out turns most of the late war single engine fighters, if it still has its WEP. I am talking about speeds of ~200 mph or less. If there is anything in the handling that bothers me it is the roll rate, but even that is not worse than quite a few fighters.

The pilot statement is trivial. The plane may give an advantage, but if the pilot skill is different enough, it can easily compensate for the plane. The mossie is clearly the better fighter of the two, but not to an absolute.

We need a "facepalm" emotion.

I'll use this one instead:

Mosquito VI - twice the spitfire, four times the ENY.
