The 205 is my all time favorate AH fighter, Althought we rarely see it in the CT since it had a short and limited operational history. Most of my experance in it is in the MA.
If you havent done this, try buring the fuel out of the wing tanks first, idealy before you get into action, it improves handeling apricably, also leaving the 7mm on the ground helps as well if your in the 202, it preforms better with just the two 12.7mm.
