109 G6
« on: June 08, 2010, 05:16:53 PM »
I love this plane. Love it, head over heels for it.

Although a lot of people seem to think I like the ugly girl of the 109s though. I have heard its the worst performing overall of the G series we have in the game. Why is this? What makes this one worse off than the G2? Is there any one out there that likes this plane?

G2 has the same engine and is lighter. The G6 has more hitting power. I may be wrong, but I believe other than the 50cals instead of 30cals, its basically the same plane as the G2. The G6 is a ~400lb more g2. The G14 with the 20mm cannon is a G6 with better boost, ie when wep is hit, the ATA is higher.

If you love the G6, you'd better try the G2. The G2 has worse armament but you will barely notice it. In my opinion the G2 is the best 109 performance wise next to the K4. It turns and climbs better then both the G6 and G14 (on military power that is) and its even faster then a G14 on the deck on military power.

Personally I don't recommend gondolas AT ALL since it ruins the performance (especially the G6's). But if there is one 109 i would consider using gondolas, it would be the G2.

I'm taking up the G2 every once in a while when i don't feel like using 30mm's.

In real life the G-6 was a better fighter than the G-2, but the improvements does not easily translate to a simulation since they are mostly instrumentation/pilot aids, reliability and structural changes. The upgraded fire power is really the only benefit that we get in the game. The all-out performance suffered slightly due to increased weight, but more so because of increase in drag from the cowl bulges, wing bulges for the new stronger gear, and fixed tail wheel (the G-2 has a retractable one).

G6 is my favorite 109 we have. Something about it just screams out to be thrown about the sky and between the trees. It's got alot of character and can do some gravity defying moves when pushed.

On the deck I feel unbeatable in it. Even with those performance sapping gondies.

Just curious if anyone has any knowledge of WW2 German pilot experiences while flying the g-2 or the g-6?

It is my favorite 109 as well.  It may be because I'm used to it, but I prefer it over the G2 for some reason.

Not about the 109G's in particular but about 109's themself:

It seems to me that the G-6 is more stable than the G-2 or G-14.  It might be slower in speed and climb, but it just seems to be more stable in some of those quirky maneuvers, especially the stall turns, snap rolls, snap turns, etc. 

I certainly do not stall out (i.e. "lose control") in the G-6 like I do the other 109's.

109g6 have so many variants, we just had to have the basic model, (same go for the fw190a8)


One thing about the 109g2 : its very vulnerable to hits in hte airframe from .50s, killing/wounding  pilot.
The 109g6 otoh can absorb the bullets with its better pilot protection.
