Yes of course, you'll bleed speed due to high AoA. You can pull some lead and hit him after which you don't have to follow and you go vertical as usual. The enemy has some bullets in him already. What I am saying is that in so called real life pilot would have no chance to pull that lead at all because the trim response was not as swift and smooth. I agree on the corner speed and what you call mirror spiral, but in a vertical scissors - go figure

Negative G manoeuvres against RAF? Probably not.
With the structural damage nonexistent and this trim response, this is quite important issue if you consider CloD as a simulator. If you read about the trim operation of a 109, it is rather obvious that that is not what we've got in game at the moment, hence this thread.
