You mean he porked them by allowing you to pull out of a screaming dive without using trim?

I just find it amusing that Kurfurst raises this as a bug for the RAF but no mention of the 109, which is in fact even slower, and he uses his own website as a source!! What a joke.
There are more factors on the aeroplane to consider here, such as rudder trim, and when I do my own 109 test because Kurfurst hasn't bothered to then I will also check the slip ball and drag. Eric Brown commented on the enormous legwork he had to put in during a dive in the 109 to avoid slip.

Rather like G, a level playing field would have to be applied, unless we get into the world of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas where the pilot has a lifestyle which affects his fitness and strength! That said I think a standard stamina bar wouldn't be a bad thing for the sim - so if you enter a long fight pulling lots of G then you get tired physically - this could be reflected in the forces you can apply to the aeroplane, ie it's response worsens. It's a feature.
