Dirty Rotten Flieger Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Wow I stumbled on the store page and for a second I thought I could buy it and download it right now! Nearly sprayed a mouthful of hot tea all over my screen and keyboard... When can we fly it !?!?!? soon?

LcSummers Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Wow great. Cant wait to have it. The K-4 and the G-10 are my favorits of the 109. Cool, with the Bf 109 i get my MFG crosswind. PERFECT!! Edited August 29, 2014 by LcSummers
Darkwolf Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Lol. Not surprised about the announcement's timing. I am happy since i can afford all the upcoming module, i really feel sorry for those who can't buy them all... :/ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] PC simulator news site.

Fahhh Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Now we are talking :) The Me-109 flew in my country's colors (E & G not K though) so I am super excited about it and feel it closer to my heart than the other modules available right now.. The months will pass quickly!
Flagrum Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 I thought ED's "soon" was ~6 months... Soon is always what you fear it could be, never what you hope it would be... :smartass:
beaupower32 Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Good, more targets for my P-51 to make a mess of... May be Mike, but soon the hunter will be the hunted.

OutOnTheOP Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 May be Mike, but soon the hunter will be the hunted. I will gladly go up against your P-51 with the Bf-109.:pilotfly: I suspect you would be slightly less glad, if ED gives the Mustang the proper fuel it would be carrying in the period the K was fielded. ;)
beaupower32 Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 I suspect you would be slightly less glad, if ED gives the Mustang the proper fuel it would be carrying in the period the K was fielded. ;) And I can still do the same. No matter what fuel, if the pilot knows what he is doing, It would be no problem to shoot down a mustang.

The icy grasp of primal fear crawls up my spine indeed. Bottomline is, even the lowest powered version of the 109K has a powerloading of 535 PS / t. The Dora is about 488, the "proper fuel" US mustang would be about 413... and the P-47... ok, let's just leave the P-47. There are not too many piston engined fighter around that can claim the same. Hence why its such a hotrod.

Hence why its such a hotrod. But you also have to remember that Bf109K4 was not the work-horse of the Luftwaffe. I would rather like to see Bf109G6, which was most often seen German fighter in the skies of Europe. Also, you have to remember that P-51 has Merlin engine that is similar to the one in Spitfire(IX)... but despite the weight, the P-51 was faster in a level flight than the Spit.

Roadrunner Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 well, in all it's variants, the 109 is the most produced aircraft of all times (roughly 33.000 build). for THAT reason, i would like to know, how fast we DCS guys will top that number with crashes due to pilot errors :D regards, RR [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "There's nothing to be gained by second guessing yourself.

Godzila Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) :doh: I really wanted Bf-109, but I thought it won't be released anytime soon so I choose Dora for my backers reward instead. I didn't even know what Dora is before DCS. , I guess I a am going to pay a lot for this mistake. There are no words to explain how mad I am:mad: Don't get this in a wrong way, I am not native english speaker. Go ED and DCS WWII:pilotfly: Edited August 29, 2014 by NineLine Edit for 1.1
