I wouldn't say, that the 152 H was nothing special at normal altitudes. According to Willi Reschkes book Jagdgeschwader 301/302 a Fw 190 A-8 was easily turned out in a simulated dogfight against a Ta 152 H-0, at altitudes from near ground to 3000 meters. The Fw 190 was flown by an experienced pilot whereas the pilot of the Ta 152 had only 2 take-offs with it then.
Can't have been too bad
