FM2 vs Brewster
FM2 vs Spit5
Spit5 vs Brewster

I'm no pro, in fact I'm terrible in each one but I'd have a great time in a fur ball filled only with these planes.

P-40 vs Spit IX has to be a typo.


The best duels are C.202 vs C.202.  They are agile and fairly tough, enabling you to survive a mistake or two and turn the tables.

Yeah that 202 is a blast, actually the c205 vs p51 is pretty fun too.

The P40 is a decent turner and a lot of fun.
May present to you P40 vs Spit9  :D

A lot of variables and options, but if you can provide a basic timeframe of early/mid/late war and which flavor of axis vs allies, I can give you a very good idea.

Or... you could go look at the old CT/AvA setups for ideas - they were usually balanced.
