That sure is an exciting film of you demonstrating how to poorly fly a higher, faster Tempest against lower, slower Spits who were completely at your mercy. It's a good thing you decided to run when you did.

well may be once when spit IX will not outclimb tempest over 15k, i will fight agains them in co alt... but current spit IX have way better climb performance that tempest above 15k

Considering the Tempest turned out to be a poor interceptor in real life due to its poor climb rate and high altitude performance, it's not surprising that a Spitfire Mk IX would out climb you above 15,000ft. The Tempest was best at intercepting V-1 rockets and ground attack missions.

Maybe if you had shown aggressiveness in engaging the Spits they wouldn't have had the opportunity to grab alt while you dilly-dallied above them with a 200mph speed advantage.
The entire film shows you diving, not turning, zooming some, and then making one half-hearted pass on a Spit that results in you blowing a really easy shot. You then high-tail it away once half of the guys who started below you have had a chance to grab to the same altitude (albeit still slower than you).
Not exactly post worthy, but whatever floats your boat I guess.

I agree - but perhaps one of the dweebfires was Levi? ...just a thought. :D

No, the guy is showing a film with a comment chiding the Spits for thinking he would turn with them. What I saw instead was a perch-sitter with alt and speed blowing his every advantage quickly and then bugging out. And then later even complaining because his higher, faster perked plane didn't climb well enough.
LOL!
My real question is why he even bothered posting this film other than to embarrass himself.

ehm guys .... you didnt get it .....
i posted this film just to prove, that Bishops are SPIT DWEEBS :D

LOL you guys did forgot that we are talking about game didnt you ?
ohh man its hard to make jokes today
-
but who of you guys remember NIKI outdiving pony.... or niki looping during the fight and keep climbing and stuff like that ??
and when finaly HT fixed it, all those lames switched to LA7s, Spits
but i dont guess some of you do remember older version AH
-
LOL
Brings back some of my Niki dweeb era memories.
The old FM Niki was one of the best high altitude fighters. It ate P51s alive at 28-35K. All they could do was (and just barely) run away in straight line - anything else like climbing, diving or turning was suicide, and all the while the fanboys were screaming there was nothing wrong with it's FM! :)
-
lol Grun
nice to se some old chap around..... yeah those time, when no one of NIKI fans made it home, because kill NIKI was the MUST ... most ortodox of us killed their chute then as cherry after fight :D :D :D

Maybe it was to show us how not to fly a Tempest.
You're right, he held all the cards and still ended up folding. If he had used his advantage of altitude and speed, plus the added advantage of being in a plane with better lower altitude performance, then he would have returned home with a few more scalps than he did.

lol Ack-ack your stupidity is probably genetic problem ...
that good question, why i did post this lame film .... and if you gonna read my 1st answer again ... you may find an answer on this question........

I can confirm that! Seems like every time I wade into Bishop airspace, I get shot down by either Spitfire IXs on patrol, LA-7s on intercept, or Typhoons on a jabo run. Well, except for this weekend when Blndie shot me down twice in his 109F; first when I was in a heavy P-38 below him got shot in the face, and then again when I was in a fuel-laden 109G6 above him (and I augured in my dive). Doh! :p
-
Yep I'm saying it all the time that orel is lame pilot :D But somehow he still manages to land quite big number of kills every sortie he makes... Umm...
hehe... ;)

YOOOOo GoFaster got IT :D :D :D

Eagle,
Fly for the bish some time. or knit. or rook. It won't matter. All the teams fly the same proportions of the different fighters.
But, by all means please sneer all you like.
...and if by some chance you prove to yourself your superiority over the rest of us, all the more power to ya.

No way man, I fly knights, and NOBODY flies Spits. In fact, I've never seen a Green Spit Icon!

Nope, never seen it. I've never seen Dead Man Flying in a spit either. He always flys a "Leviathn" whatever that is.

It's some cheater dweeb plane that you get for sending a case of Cragganmore to HT.

I can confirm what SB said. There are no Green Spits to be found. Red ones all over the place, usually see them in between all the Red La7s all over the place.
-
as i said Furious ... you just didnt get it
so try to read my first answer again... and let me know if you note some new points.....
sometime im wondering how elder guys we have here
ohhhh welll
it seems to me, that no matter what we are talking about, some of us are just soooo cleaver...... even w/o proper reading of posts.
