I hear everybody saying: The 109 is an easy plane, the 109 is a master in dogfighting, you should be scared of a 109. The 109 does loads of damage etc etc etc
- Assuming that I lack a certain competence in dogfighting in ww2 planes, how the hell do I score kills in this thing. I take the vertical like everybody is saying, but I lose a ton of airspeed, stall out, turn over to the left (when enemy is at the right)
- I have track IR, the enemy passes me by, I look back to see what the enemy is doing and react accordingly. For example the enemy makes a turn, I do a vertical loop. I do the loop, am above the enemy, but am slow, the enemy goes up, shoots me
- I try to do a turn in this thing. Turning does not seem to be a thing in the 109, as I have read it is a boom and zoom fighter, not a turn fighter. Turning is almost certainly death for me.
- If I try to do something else, or react to the enemy's movements, I no time the enemy is behind me, ready to shoot me down....
What the actual f am I doing wrong here, since everybody is saying it is so god damned easy. I mean, I am maybe a bit of a noob, but I am not a complete idiot. Do you guys have tips, pointers, youtube clips I can watch etc? Or is it just practice practice practice...
