Its simple, all you have to do is:
1. Climb to 25k
2. level off
3. dive down on unsuspecting victim
3.5 Ho everything in sight
4. climb back up to 25k
5. any threat from adversaries co alt
6. RUN!

 :D

You've been in the game long enough to know who the good 109 sticks are. When you log on find out where they are fighting and fight against them. Seek out guys like Agent360, Grizz, JB11, Stampf and his squad. You'll get killed alot, but dieing is learning imo. I'm sure any of them will be glad to take ya to the DA. Have them record the films and send them to you. That way you can see what they are seeing and how they are getting angles on you. You can look at your films but it's better to look at theirs.

Lighten up Francis

One thing ive noticed since flying nothing but late 109's...I cant fly anything else anymore. They are much different than the rest of the rides in here.

Start the engine and give it full throttle.  Auto take-off helps.   :D
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Carry gondies. Get some alt. Lead ALLOT. Hold the trigger a little longer.     :D

Throttle management is key; it will torque the entire aircraft to the left or right.  It can help you hang longer and will allow you to perform stall-speed maneuvers that no other plane in the set can follow.

Unless you're in an F4; don't make a habit of sustained flat turns.

Unlike most A/C; where diving on a target is preferable, the 109 is well suited to coming up from underneath it's target.

Vertical is fine; though the A/C is equally suited to rolling scissors in the horizontal plain.

If youre taking up a tater bird; set up for crossing shots and aim to hit with the first round.

Leave the gondies at home unless you are hunting buffs.

+1 for any plane gun amount increase...no need for the added weight in any plane, it only hinders performance. most fighters can be shot down with well placed shots from the lesser gun packs or without gondolas... aka P39Q doesnt need the extra 2 guns on its wings same with 109. P51 P47 La7 can take less guns and still kill fighters with ease. etc. This lightens the plane by 200lbs or more

I love taking gondolas sometimes, when I could bump into buffs, but I have no problems fighting fighters with them, sometimes the single 20mm and two 12.7mms dont always knock a plane out on a snapshot.

I like the G2. Why not carry the extra ammo if you can. Gondies are a bit heavy, so what, deal with it.     :D

To each his own.  Just means I'll have a better chance at beating you in my bare G6.     :joystick:

Admittedly, I love that black and white skin on the G2.   :rock
