some 'evidence'

note it is for a Va but it is a fully instrumented test.
a quick try at replicating these conditions ingame ( SpitIIa 210 IAS trimmed level flight, 2650rpm estimated 2G pull) gives a drop in IAS to ~165mph and ~200 on release. To me that is a huge difference- infact the chart shows a very slight increase in IAS at pull
The graphs of timed 180 turn also fail to show any noticeable corellation between sideslip and IAS, certainly not the ~30mph difference experienced ingame.
Is this sufficient proof to put to Luthier? or are there any errors that anyone can spot that need to be addressed?
