OK, I admit it, I cheated...

I flew a Russian plane tonight...  

I feel so ashamed.

The cheating was when you flew that 109F and I thought I was going to out turn you in my Yak 9U.  Guess I shouldn't assume which 109 it is and really look.

Hehe, when we started that fight both you and Arlo came directly out of the sun, I knew your guys were coming at me, but I had no Icons (cause of the sun) and was pretty disoriented as to what you guys were up to.

Anyway, that was a fun fight.  The 109F and Yak are actually a pretty good match.  Overall the Russian's have a pretty good mix of good fighters.  It's much easier to get yourself into deep trouble in the German planes in this set-up, IMO.  You can't outrun or outclimb the Russians, but at least Franz can turn with the Yaks.
