Go to the help section of the boards, download all of Agent's videos, study, and practice in the TA/DA.

TRY and keep it as a BnZ plane, If you have to, you can really turn it. I was actually turning with a spit14 the other day in a K4, i was VERY surprised. (I was using combat trim and flaps though) :rock

If you're flying it in the scenario, you're going to want to fly it differently than a lot of the advice you read, which is tailored to low alt MA fights.

Do a search of the "Aircraft and Vehicles" sub-forum.  Much has be written on the topic.  

The 109 is not a "BnZ" plane in AH unless you're in an Emil and he's in a MkI.

i just started flying the 109 this past month, was wanting to try out a new plane i dont normally fly. i set up my forward view (the view that would be the "8" key on the keyboard) all the way up against the gunsight to be able to see a little better when going in for a kill. when i get close to a kill i toggle to this view and it helps out tremendously, i actually enjoy the 109 now
