Yes. Very different.
Maybe I'm missing something but aren't spit 16's and LA7's every where in the LW arenas?
I know I've read a thread or 2 about everyone flying spit 16's and LA7's.
On the same note, I fly MW and I really don't encounter that many Hurri's. Usually it seems to be an equal mix of F6f's, P38's, P51B's, Spitfires,Hurri2C's,am6's and C205's
