I Want my 4.09 Spit FM's back.........

[Sven]

"Er, what? Are you for real? It was designed as an interceptor, with good climb rate and high manoeuvrability."

I never said it wasn't?

"You think the Spitfire was designed primarily with fresh pilots in mind (so it could have been better if designed with experienced pilots in mind). You're either trying to stir up an arguement, or you're clueless. It's impossible to argue that the Spitfire wasn't highly capable in real life dogfights."

It is a good and easy highly capable fighter, that's why it could be flown by even idiots, that's totally right, what are you trying to say? Every plane which was very succesful in combat was produced in large numbers was easy enough to let even raw pilots get off in the air, otherwise it wouldn't have been a succesful plane wouldn't it? That's exactly what the Spitfire pilot meant, a good front line fighter, as it's intercepting role of bombers was given to the hurricanes.

I think you made a mistake on your last quote, since I never wrote it
Oktoberfest was the author I believe. Am I trying to get into an ever lasting argument or are you? This all doesn't makes much sense to me.

I wasn't referring to your comments. Sven was saying that the real plane was meant for idots - which in his words meant fresh pilots.

Given that you almost exclusively fly German bombers, I don't think you're in a great position to comparing the modelling of the Spit against the other fighters in game.
