Tempest vs Ta152 maybe?
If the tempest actually dropped flaps the 152 would eat it up.

Around 15 to 20K they match up a lot better

A Brewster can dive away yes, but it pretty much the only advantage it has against the Ki. As soon as you start to turn the Ki will win.
should of been more specific I was talking about the Zeak vs wildcat

I really enjoy the P-51 B/D against the 109K4, I've and some very good high, and low alt fights in both planes. I do love fighting against anything in my 109F, but as mentioned before the 109F and Spit V are a great match up against each other I love it.

According to DokGonzo's aircraft comparison charts, the Spit IX matches pretty well against the 109G-2.   While the Spit has quite an advantage in firepower lethality, the 109 should have an advantage in roll rate.

I've always thought this was the very best AvA fight.

38G v 202 is also a good one, but not as good as Spit I v Emil.

Longest fight I've ever had was with Oldman and a Spit1 vs Emil. I believe we went 12 minutes and both of us augered! a white knuckle draw!!

Even on the deck I still would take the 152. Just my prefrence. The tempest is total crap slow. The roll rate alone would have it killed. I would just do a scissor against your torque and your doomed

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
