The only time I have caught a 109 with my Hurri was when I had significant height advantage and turned all that into speed, and even then it is short lived as once the Hurri levels out it's like pushing a barn door through the air. If you are getting caught by Hurris, you are not extending away enough, or have grossly misjudged your and his energy state. Period.

Maybe it's me, but last weekend I ran full throttle (auto prop pitch) for 10+ min across the channel at low alt on my 109 E-4 and a Hurri gaining on my 6 ... and 2 other 109's behind the Hurri, trying to catch up ... saved only by other 109s zooming the magic hurri. I started with high speed after a dive, and a comfortable margin, by the way. Hey it's not to whine (I don't care, my bad for ending up like that), but the FM is still seriously flawed. I will try to organise some tests.
