Just for interest I'm going to post Bf 110 losses due to break up or other, mainly unknown, causes between July and December 1940:

Wow,
ONE is due to inflight break up. The rest are due to other causes.
One is an outlier in a statistically insignificant sample, not to mention completely off topic of the British Flight Models.
Hey but emotionally it proves your point right? 
Post the paper's about the NACA's work, I think it time for that one again. It is pretty good at confusing people. You can write what ever you want at the top because folks don't read it and many don't understand what it says.
Getting back on topic of the British FM's.
This whole divide of "Red vs Blue" is totally idiotic and does not help the game in any way.
I don't support changing anything that changes the historical fact these aircraft were
equal dogfighters. If they were NOT equal dogfighter, then the game should reflect that as well.
I don't want overmodeled ego inflaters for pre-teens pursuing nationalistic fantasy for any side.
I want all the aircraft modeled as accurately as possible.
More importantly, I don't care about specific performance. I care about the immersion and thought process of the game.
Do I have to think like a World War II fighter pilot operating a state of the art piston engined fighter of the day?
That is the key parameter to success for the game to most people.
Unfortunately a few fans of specific aircraft ruin things for most by researching details to the point they can no longer see the big picture. Their vision becomes myopic and history is made to conform as a function some airplanes performance.
