Yes, I can confirm this. I've had the pleasure of two or three furballs with these guys. My guess would be the encounters were usually around 4,000 to 6,000ft up (mine anyway).
An anecdote from last night:
I was flying wingman to another Spit (I'm in a Ia and he's in a Spit IIa as it happened) and we found a 109 at altitude (I'd say at least 9,000 to 10,000ft). The IIa got a few rounds into him by surprise and the 109 dropped like a stone in a dive and proceeded to fly 10ft above the water all the way home.
Even though I had a height advantage, I couldn't catch him and he quickly out paced me. The IIa seemed to do a better job of catching up, but from the looks of it, he was firing from a great distance to try and nick him. He ran out of ammo and returned home.
I dunno. Some nights are amazing, some nights are intensely frustrating. It sucks that my friend still can't get the game running properly on his machine so he doesn't fly with me. This is part of the reason that whenever I find another RAF plane, I form up and fly with them. Usually it means I don't get the kills, but I've actually not been shot down since you guys got me, Cheese
