    I was aiming, took down 4 109's, 1st one was great, snook up behind him, quick tap from the cannons and the MG's, his tail fell off, then took down the other 3 in pretty much the same way, 1st lost tail, 1 lost a wing, 1 I killed his engine and another just blew up...

    Ran out of ammo tho when I went after the 4 Condors tho, smoked an engine got 2 with fuel leaks and riddled the last a few times but nothin major, its needs more cannon rounds....

    You are lucky that gun failures aren't modelled m8 - the Hispano 20's were notoriously unreliable when first fitted to the spit. Best gun in the game imho, one tap and you will saw a 190 in half - lovely. Only 60 rounds per gun, so no spraying

    SHVAK canons for me...every time....awesome beast, 100% reliable, mammoth power for the size of the round.

    Put those on a Spitfire and World Domination would a been a week away...and that includes time for a quick round of tennis.

    Funny really ..Lend Lease only seemed to work one way.....we gave, the VVS recieved..no return.

    Aye I could do with the practice tbh Trig. I'm a but rusty but I reckon Spit v 190 would be an interesting little matchup. The Spit is great to fly and turns on a wingtip, seems v slow and quick to bleed energy in a turn. Energy fighting the 190 should hand its arse on a plate, as it did historically to the Spit VB. Turn fighting the spit would win every time.

    worked out what my problem in fb is, my damned stick!
    No matter how I calibrate it it's always got a list to the left, and the middle is too wobbly for reliable aiming *kicks it*

    yup...agreed.....try trimming the rudder....hold CTNRL and use Z for left and X for right...

    rudder, while it should trim the YAW, seems to do an equal amount to minor body ROLL

    This will be a long and laborious fight.....Trig wont get hit on a Boom and Zoom unless you really catchhim out....Skii dare not fall foul of losing his height advatage...

    the only way that Spit would get hit hard enough was if 2 or even 3 190's took it in turns to drop on him from the heavens.,...wear him out.....good aim....lots of canons....

    and each time it happened Trig would have a 2 or 3 second chance to get on you .....
