Default Re: Spitfire vs BF109

You can't open up the throttle on an ME 262 . you needed to gradually open the throttle or the engine would flame out. That was its main weakness next to having to change the engines after 15 hours . Most 262's were shot down when making approaches to their airfields. Once at speed it was near impossible to close in on one
