Leading Edge Slats on the Me-109

So if you yanked on the stck and kept it there at high speeds it will flip? Forgive me not up to speed on terminology. Seems like you'd have to do this on purpose for it to happen.

At present, planes are flipping over at low speeds as well as high speeds which according to the reports is wrong.
