Default High Speed Shaking

Ok, I am an old boom and zoomer back from the IL2 days. Nothing more satisfying to get rewarded for all that patience in climbing and restraining oneself to go into the furball, specially in aircraft that could be considered bricks otherwise.

However, there are a couple problems with this tactic lately. Preferring the BF110 currently, imho the aircraft with most character in CoD, boom and zooming is an absolute must as direct dogfighting is pure suicide. However, once crossing 500 kph (which actually is close to the max speed of some AC) the aircraft not just shakes, but changes directions and twist around like being caught in a Tornado. Forget about having the time or stability to actually take aim. This also means that 500 kph is the max you can take into zooming again, not a lot really and gone in no time.

The 109 encounters this at around 600 kph.

Was this really this way? If it was, I will shut up, but I have a couple doubts about the nature of shaking encountered. Would be very nice if a more knowledgeable person could shed some light on that.
