yes i thought that the E4 was armed of MG-FF/M

the MG 151/20 was on the F4 no?

there were MG 151/20 on E4? i knowit was develloped in 1940 but i didnn't know E4 was equiped with.

MG 151/20 is not 20mm canon but 15mm

Woot I thought MG 151/15 is 15mm and MG 151/20 was 20mm.

I agree with the review. apart from the Spitfire bit, He cannot of been flying a Spit1 or 1a, The Hurricane Rotol is a lot faster due to the prop pitch not working on the spit.

Its not working? I thought it was Boost issues not working correctly on the Spit 1 n 1a?

Well for me its not, unless Im doing something wrong, but when i set the prop pitch on the Spit1 or 1a the only settings I have is either '0' or '100', whereas the Hurricane you can set the Prop pitch to whatever you require, I was flying the other night online and I left the spits for dead in the Hurri.

Yep the hurri is loads faster and can climb better too....

I thought this PP issue was put down to the Mk's and the 1 n 1a only have the 2 stage prop..could be wrong though

Well it could be the case, but surely the Hurricane shouldn't be faster than the Spitty, I imagine that the reviewer was flying a Mk11 spitty which flys on rails and completely outclasses the 109 E3, thats why online servers dont use it.

I think its a boost issue with the Spit too?...........


Lol... 25lb Spit anyone.. ;-)

Oh the days and days of arguments about that AC

Only thing i have/had a problem was this statement, mainly because its just not true:


"My PC isn’t the top-of-the-line box anymore, but it is no slouch either. It can run almost anything on pretty much full settings, but it chokes on CoD."

System used:

Intel Core 2 Duo 8500 processor
ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics processor
Asus Maximus motherboard
4 GB DDR2 RAM
WD 300GB HDD
Windows 7 Home Premium


I can name a fair amount of games that would eat that setup for breakfast on medium settings even.


Same goes for the statement that no other game have anti epilepsy filter (true that he said: as far as he knows)


Nitpicking i know, but if you are not 100% sure, dont write it in a official review on a majot flight sim site.



Other than that, it seemed a fair assessment except for his take on the colours, witch is a very personal preference so its no wonder some people will disagree.

Why publish a review few days before a "massive" update?

Pretty much spot on.

I agree.
Fair and Balanced.
The "opinion" piece was spot on as well.

Thanx Furbs....:)
