Hurricane reigns supreme online (why??)

[Panzergranate]

Foz.....

You may recall a question, a few day ago, from you along the lines of, "Panzer.... you're not seriously thinking of using a Hurricane in a Simulator Team Battle, are you??"

So I was persuaded to fly the Spitfire XVI and was shot down a lot by, er..... you, as a matter of fact.

Next time I'll stick to the Bf-110 C4 in simulator games, as I've scored more kills with that than I've managed with any of the single engined fighters.

You were the only guy flying the hurricane so it woldnt of really worked the spit on the other hand would of fitted in well with me and the other guy on our team who was also flying the spit. We did ok. Wasn't me who shot you down lol, i was on your team.

I've seen you in the 110 a few times, i must admit i do single you out if i see you in it. Nothing personnal but the 110 is big, easy to hit and slow enough and on sim mode with limited ammo you need all the hits you can get lol.

though on the strike game where i was in the B17 and you took the 110..... you got me plenty of time with it, caused me alot of stress lol

and yeah foz was right in that game a single hurri would of been next to useless

I remember Foz saying the exact opposite to me in our first ever Hurri team up. I picked the Hurri and he complemented me on it and picked a hurri too.

That 110 on the other hand is only any good in matches with loads of people so you can catch someone unawares. Its climbs slow,dives slow, turns slow, rolls slow, doesn't take much to take down (although you CAN still fly it with blacked out wings) ,and the rear machine gun seams to have less than half the power than the one in the IL2M. You fly it in our games and you die many, many times. I tend to fly the planes you don't see often in multiplayer, so I still use the 110 now and then. Ive never got more than 4 kills in a game with it, and my usuall count is 0 or 1. It sucks.

FOZ, I've got to give it to you, you do make the hurri's guns look great . I still think it is easy to dogfight against the hurri, but tonight you showed me it is a bitch to have one on your tail .

You and seraph play very well together, its hard to tr yand get one of you because you know the other is gonig to be waiting for you so you really have to be careful

With the hurricane i found the best thing to do with the LA-7 is -


make your shots count!!


the LA-7 can out turn, out climb, out dive, out gun, its so much better than the hurricane. So i find you get that quick shot and make your rounds count you'll take your target out, then do all you can to shake the other one off your 6.

Great game though, well played by you and seraph i have to hand it to you, you both know how to fly

When i was damaged enough i would try my best to keep the hurricane flying long enough for one of you to get a deserved kill

Enjoyed the games a lot . I've tried to continue flying when shot as well.. I actually shot down 4 aircraft with a dark red wing and light red fuselage... my roll rate was busted though .

was great playing you both, it was a real test of skill. Much fun

spill the beans... so what was the outcome of this match then?
