Last night i was in a dogfight with a TBM. I was in a 109-10g.
Now which one has a better turning ability?
It seemed that the TBM could out turn me but i thought the 109's turned better.
It ended with the TBM blowing up, luckly because i only had 20 rounds left :)
(i think he let me win :D)
<S> Blindman!

TBM is much *much* slower. He who goes slower turns in a smaller circle.

G10 turns like like a trailer home.

thanks...i will have to remember that!
it was my first "true" dogfight where i had to work to find that TBM.
Whats the best plane for turning?
-
Several AC turn well, the A6M is by far the best turner, Spit5 would be next, Hurri 2C, N1k, Spit9....
Those will turn well.

Wasn't near the knit port was it chaos, I had a turnfight with 109, then P51 joined and I stalled and augered. If it was you in 109, you had me roped perfectly at the end, was on the stall horn the whole time, if you'd dived on me seeing as you had alt, you could've gone for front quarter shot, would'nt have been able to get my nose up and even if I had, 2 .50's vs your 20 or 30mm's would'nt have done much.

zygote the guy i shot down had a name of "Blindman".
I was just north of the port and another plane did join in the fight. The port was north of t he knights HQ.
I had tunnal vision the whole dogfight! The stall horn was lasting so i turned off my speakers. :)
