A CT-4 Corsair Spitfire

[Ian Warren]

The Tauranga Airshow incoming kcgb or something else like , We simply call him KC and dang ! with that yellow plane , our latest multiplayer now must be
known as KC the sunshine man .

not having the Spitty or Corsair did his utmost to keep up , we stayed within the area anyway ,

this was to compare and test these to against each other and to compare notes

I guess having a real world pilot , myself and KC we could try and collect data and try other , how fast it would dive away , t

it was.t surprising to see , but gives you a good reasonable idea if you read about the type s

the Corsair is huge by compare to the Spitfire ,

nice thing we were able to discuss performance and try things out , the shear weight and size

end of the day , to compare

all by the way , new Tauranga looked superb

But i cant tell ya that

So Ian, which did better in a dogfight - Spitfire or Corsair?

I would hazard that the Spit had the advantage in a horizontal turning fight, but the Corsair could outclimb and outdive the Spit in the vertical.

Blake put his Corsair in a dive it pull away at the start , the Spitfires acceleration was better , we were relatively low so the Corsair was disadvantaged .
