You folks need to learn to differentiate between someone that is posting a factual statement and someone that is "whining".  I know, it is REALLY difficult, especially when you are a dyed in the wool die-hard ****fire pilot.. but the first post is whats known as a fact.

Does it matter?  Spit IX vs 109G6, 110G2, and 190A5.  

Spit turns better, climbs better, has more firepower, accelerates better, dives faster, and above 8k is virtually the same speed as the 109G6 and 190A5.

110s got more firepower, but it doesnt do a damn thing if you can't hit your target with it.

Would have been a good room if it was "Early Days of the 8th Airforce" you know - just Jugs and Stang B's vs the LW - we see more than enough of Spit9's in MA as it is - have some imagination when setting up rooms or if you can't let someone else do it.

Yes. It does. You gotta experience something to have a qualified opinion on it.

So ... what, again, do you base your "fact" (opinion ... no ... whine) on?

I'm more qualified than you to express a valid opinion on the subject if you're just sitting in the grandstands and yelling "boo."

But if it'll make you feel better ... yeah ... Spits and Tiffies are a tough fight ... I actually got to experience this setup from that pov first hand. But it's not the end of the world .... even for the ones actually on it. ;)

Yeah .... I often armchair quarterback local HS football games based on the two years I was on varsity. And boy do the coaches find my insights invaluable. ;)

 But hey ... since you're coming back to play you may as well start now and hop in there (the dreaded and evil France CT setup) and give it a go .... then come back here and whine your guts out about it all. :D

Arlo,

Considering your post on your own Squad recruiting thread about flying LW in the CT for this setup vs. flying the Spit, I'm not sure why you are giving Urchin a ration of toejam about what he said.

I have to agree, the LW planes in this setup can't handle the Spit IX Tippy combo.  You can't catch the Tippies and cant do anything with the spits.

You will do better flying the 205's.

I think its a good matchup

1 on 1, I win about 80% regardless of what allied crate they fly

I fear the V over the IX anyday

it goes back to the pilot

I'm happy winning 80%
