To choose between either the 109 or spitfire at this stage of the war would be very hard indeed. In some respect the Spitfires had a distinct disadvantage, one being the Negative-G Cutout issue.
Where the Germans pilots had a lot more experience that the British at this stage, the British however had the Home-Ground advantage.
This is going to be one of the interesting things about the BOB Sim. How evenly matched the aircraft were!
