Country:  | yeah but it was much more vulnerable on take offs and landings, the pilots are only focused on that and you are at lower speeds

| well i would say the 'k' was the best performance wise, even though unfortunately it was flown by undertrained pilots( here the mediocre handling must have been an issue) but the 'f' was the nicest to fly, while undergunned. Just ask mr Nowotny!

Country: | Lanc have had a migrane for 6 days now and it is pea soup foggy so I am a bit testy this morning........
The G-10 could finally catch the dreaded night bomber Mossie over Berlin and the single engine Luftw night boys preferred this unit until the Me 262A became available. One chap that is included in our book makes mention of over 470mph in his G-10 chasing a Mossie until he blew the pistons out of the craft . the engine froze solid and he was up over 30,000 feet still and motionless until the craft dropped like a stone and he bailed out, freezing his arse off in the descent landing hard on the top of a barn. to his aid was 5 Russian pow's, the Luftwaffe pilot thought at first he had landed in Soviet held territory since his unit was defending Berlin... | |
