Country: | To me the best was actually the Bf-109E. I think it was the best overall fighter of the BoB however my vote does go to the Hurricane because of what she did for the British in the BoB.

Country: | No Westland Whirland in the line up? Not the best but should do better than the Stuka with 15 votes??????

If you're too freaking immature or stupid (or both) to come on this board, stick to X box and stay away from the Internet.

Country: | That was a informative post by Plane Freak or should I say Plain Freak
so lets all remember if you like German aircraft of any sort or you have a German name or you have relitives who are German you are now classed as an Nazi according to this interlectual giant.
I have a Nazi banner my dad liberated from the headquaters in Middleburg I suppose that must make him (and me for owning it) a Nazi sympathiser at least.
There are some odd people around isnt there Joe? |

Country: | Equally disturbing, is that his profile reveals that he likes to shoot "things". The mind boggles at what "things" are. |

Country: | The Hurricane...a war plane...could be patched up and flown again and far more novice friendly.
I remember reading one RAF pilots view on the Stuka was he loved it...said it would burst into flames after a good burst
This wasn't the air war the Bf 109 Emil was designed for...far too short ranged...I would still go for the Spitfire Mk I or II...but then I am biased.
This battle was about the Bf 110, the strategic fighter that never was. |

Sorry Basket that was not meant for you. That was for the ******* plane freak who said that if you had a German name and voted for a German aircraft you were a NAZI.

'Hurricane took out more planes'
With out a doubt they did, facts speak clearly, but, there were more of them to do so! About the same ratio of Hurris to Spits in service/fighting as the ratio of 'kills'. So over all, Hurri to Spit kill ratio was 1:1.
Also as good as the 109 was, it was a poor dog fighter, having a wing loading approx 25% greater than the Spit. Thus it couldn't turn as tight at height and tended to make attacks in the zoom & climb, losing height where it became vulnerable to the Spit & Hurri.
A BoB fighter pilot I still talk to, tells me in his squadron, (610) they used to let the 109s come down to them and just before the 109s could open fire the Spits broke right and left in tight turns, ending up behind the 109 who then couldn't shake them off except by putting the nose down into a power dive, which we all know, neither the Spits nor Hurris could do.
