If the less than a handful (three or so) of 100 octane nay-sayers were consistent with their 'standards' of proof..

I could cut them some slack

But, as it turns out they are not

On that note, If you want to see something real funny.. As in Kurfurst dropping his standards of proof to nil

Ask Kurfurst about flettner tab usage on the 109K-4 ailerons..

A few years back he was on a campaign to have Oleg change the 109K-4 FM to include flettner tabs on the ailerons..

His so called proof for doing so was based on a couple of pictures of mostly drawings not actual planes

And 'that' was enough proof as far as Kurfurst was concerned to change the 109K-4 FM.

Even though there are dozens and dozens of WWII pictures of actual 109K-4s shown without flettner tabs, and even though there is a famous WWII German test pilot report stating all the problems associated with flettner tabs

Mater of fact.. I think this was one of the reason he got banned from wiki

That being a pilots's 'perception' of what is going on can be very different from what is 'actually' going on.
