The 109T would be a valid aircraft for use in AH, imo. Seeing how the MA is NOT a replication of WWII but an environment to enjoy aircombat using simulated WWII aircraft it COULD be (along with the navalised version of the Suka) a welcome addition.

Westy,

Remember, this is an environment in which the squeaking about the N1K2-J never ceases because only 406 of them were built.

I still think that moving into fantasy aircraft would be the wrong way for HTC to go, but if they do I'm not leaving. Its not that big a deal, I just think there are much more worthy additions.

Sikboy, and Sabre, if two pilots of equal ability are in a P51D and the other in a Gloster Gladiator.. I'm pretty positive it would result in a draw.

It's all speculation (based on my experiences, however), but I would wager that a really good guy behind the stick of a Gloster Gladiator would easily hold his own against faster planes.

I know I have no problem dodging someone BnZing me. I never follow someone vertically and save my speed.

So it's just a matter of intelligence and ability of the guy in the slower, more manueverable plane.

Sure, he's got speed and can E-fight me all day.. but if he can't get his guns on target then it's a moot point.

Exactly what I was trying to point out

. Flying both the zero and Corsair allot I've found the strengths and weaknesses over speed/manuverability. I'm by far not the best pilot in AH, since I've only been playin since about early september. But I find you can usuelly deal with a faster opponent pretty easy especially if you had the manuverability of a biplane like the Gloster Gladiator.
