I agree with the two posts immediately above mine.
Particularly the Spitfire had lower wing loading than the 109, just look at the wings, the wings of the Spitfire are much bigger, so for aircraft of more or less the same weight the loading is bound to be lower.
In "Luftwaffe Fighter Aces" by Mike Spick, on page 50 we have a table including many things, particularly:
Quote:
Wing loading Bf 109E-3 32lb/sq ft, Spitfire 1 24lb/sq ft.
