So many people giving contradicting advice lol. People should learn to fly a plane before telling someone else how to

Most interesting is the advice that the "109F" is somehow either a turnfighter or an E fighter. Apparently people here don't understand how a fighter is determined to be one or the other (hint: it's neither until you pair it up against an opponent).

Example: A 190D9 is an e-fighter when fighting any type of Spitfire. A 190D-9 is a turnfighter when fighting a Me 262. A 190D9 is both a turnfighter and an e-fighter when fighting a 190A-8.

A plane being classified as a turnfighter or e-fighter is entirely dependent on what it is fighting. On its own, the 109F is neither a turnfighter or e-fighter - it's simply a 109F. Its tactics and flight style are determined based on what it is fighting.

This is ACM 101 (or 1101, if you're Ratio).

The reason for me to choose the 109F is that it is a step away from the "Brewster-class" turn fighters but still not as extreme as LA-7 and P-51. But it requires a different type of flying to be effective compare to Zeke's and Ki-43:s and that's the point, to learn a different type of fighting. So far most fights ends in a lufbery down on the deck and me either shot down or stalling into the ground, its will take some time to start thinking vertically instead of horizontal.

best way for you to learn is find a Trainer or player in game in which you admire (flying wise) and ask them to have some friendly 1v1's.

There's no such thing as a friendly 1v1.

That being said, finding someone who knows how to fly the 109 and getting lessons can be incredibly useful. I've flown it for a few hops and it's a lot of fun to fly, but getting the most out of it will definitely take some time and practice.

Biggest problem now is to aim, harvesting a lot of assists...
As long as the fight stays vertical it works decent, horizontal fights on the deck not so much. Little odd dough to have a fight where u gain altitude. Cant do nearly all the stuffs a good stick do but it maybe a little to optimistic to expect that after half a week....

Spend at least 1 whole tour in a plane and you'll learn all the ins and outs of it pretty well. I spent 2 whole tours flying nothing but the 109F and dying tons (think I had close to 1500 deaths by the end of the 2 tours), but I got a really good feel for how to fly the plane.

Wow, im clearly not commited to this game enough, i havent been even close to 100 deaths in a single plane model during one tour. 1500 deaths, thats 6 months of playing...

Edit: Had to check, in  my 9 months in this game i have 226 deaths in the Brewster and thats most of any fighters...
