I like the Hurri IIc. You can put 2000lbs under the wings, so it makes a decent little JABO plane than can turn well. First sortie in her, I dropped a VH with the eggs, pulled up, dropped in to clear the 6 of a countrymate (got a ping from ack in the process, leaking oil now), broke off and latched onto a Spit IX. He locked into a left turn, I pulled up and followed him a bit, then cut into his turn, and sawed off his wing with the 20's. Avoided a fast 109 by breaking left, then rolling back right, but he was already 400yds off so no snapshot. Engine finally seized up, and someone got me. Was a fun flight tho!
Haven't noticed Georges being that much different, killed 1, got killed by 1 (I was target fixated.)
Best fun in 1.08 was a little JABO mission I had in Hurri IIc. I wanted to check out a depot. Dropped the eggs on it, watched some buildings go boom, then ran (in a Hurri??? ha!) for home. Well, a 109 spots me, and starts playing with me. I avoid him pretty easily, hoping eventually he'll get bored and leave me or turn with me. No such luck as another 109 comes in. They've got it timed pretty well, I'm 99.9% defensive, only getting off one front quarter shot on one in the first 10 or so passes. I finally get a good look at one, but I lose him in the ground (he went into the ground on my FE, that's always nice) so I assumed an auger, and rolled to evade the next one. Do a quick turn and meet him near head on, he gets a cannon and a flap, I get a lot of him. Roll to the right check 6, and pull hard as a see the other 109 behind me. Apparently he didn't auger, and he gets a nice bit of wing. I go down. I was going to berate myself for letting some 109 driver shoot me down, but it was hblair, and I never feel bad losing to him!
1 Hurri IIc vs 2 109G10s. Was a blast!
