109F-8? You mean the 190F-8? If so, no, it's been a late war ride just like its brother the A-8

Thanks for listing the lw birds!

Plenty of other great fun planes

Hoping the best pilots try this change as otherwise they will be picking the rest of us apart which is not the best way it could go..

HlyWd clued me into this thread.  Sounds like fun.  I will join you guys in flying nothing but Mid War rides.  I will be bringing back my glory days of flying the FW190-A5.  If dying continuously in my white 190-A5 could be considered my glory days.  I was mentioned in the Butcher Bird Mafia threads though...

I've noticed there's one nut that seems to fly a 39 and actually get kills in it. I'm not sure what's wrong with them...

You brave souls are gonna get picked to death by two squads that come to mind. Seems the only squads with lots of numbers were/are pickin squads when I left. Maybe times have changed?

I'm afraid they haven't but I still tried yesterday. Died pretty similar way. And noticed Fi 156 is no match for Skyyr flying 190D.

Oh yes, if ego can take being killed and revenge is not first priority. For some it is, I noticed about 1 h ago...    :D

Those A5s are surprisingly fast going downhill. I remember I barely got away from once once when I was in a D9 hunting ponies.
