check the ki84 setup on this new patch
« on: April 26, 2011, 01:42:46 AM »
 :airplane:    was in a D9 at 6k, ki84 and i bypassed each other, me heading down him heading up. i dove for the deck strafing field and continued on to my base. ki84 reversed to the deck and caught my 190D9 somewhere south of the base. D9 is at least 40 mph faster at ground level on the charts. i was down to 1/3 to 1/2 tank fuel and no externals if that matters. can understand if he dove on me but he was at ground level as long as i was.    :salute

Doesn't sound like a bug, but more that the 84 managed his E better.
