I joined a server that had both the E-4 and the IIa.
I have not been in the E-4 much in combat so I thought I would see just how the E-4 really did compared to the IIa head to head.
This is a server with the English channel map mind you.
We came on head to head(E-4 and IIa)
I got the advantage on the IIa but lost him.
He got the advantage on me. I did some definitive moves and lost him.
But he never got on my 6 after that he got the heck out of there because he know that I had him and one lucky shot as I'v been told he would have been out.
This is the IIa that out fly's the 109's.
The truth is, in the E-4 109 I out did the that IIa.
I stayed around and another IIa showed up. The same thing. But this time he was on my 6. I out did him also in the E-4. And got the advantage.
Had it been a I or a Ia it would have been a ez score as we all know.
I have not been flying the 109's that much but it did not take long to learn how to get the advantage on the IIa in the 109.
Just like it did not take long to learn how to out fly the 109's in the IIa as the video showed.
Conclusion: It's not the IIa that's the problem but the pilot's of the 109's that are not as good as thy think.
I like the ATAG server. But I also think thy are cheating the Server and the players by not having the IIa and having a more level playing field.
On other servers that have both planes the score's are not lop sided like thy are in the ATAG server for the 109's.
I'm not trying to flame anyone with this.
I'm not going by what other pilots say.
I'm going by what I did and found out.
