The Focke Wulf broke at -3.8G~-4.0G. I could not anchieve more than -2.0G in the spitfire, maybe if i trim the spitifire negative i ll. I ll try later. In principle appears to me that spitfire has much better G endurance in 4.10. Why? Ask TD.

I did not tested other aircraft, but i guess that i ll have much more surprises. Kwiatek, what you expected to me observe while trying negative g's?

Certainly "was not" technical advantage, Mustang.

LOL

Yes, Mustang. The allies won the war. They have to win in IL2 too, always. Spitfire is the perfect project, no compromisses.

You just said that the Spitfire could pull fewer negative Gs. This probably has a lot to do with lower average speed and the nose-up trim tendency of the Spitfire. What has that got to do with G endurance? If you could get the Spit to pull 3-4 negative Gs it would break as well. All it means is that an FW-190 can escape more easily in a bunt as long as the pilot is careful. That make sense?

[Ernst]

Ok. But how about the positive g's? Check the messages before this one. However i do not tried to trim the Spitfire to verify if it can go to more negative G's yet. Appears it had some positive trim on take off/start.

Dunno, didn't read that far back, haha. Does sound odd, but it doesn't mean it is wrong in principle. I don't know what either aircraft was stressed to achieve off the top of my head.

Have a read through this, Ernst. EDIT: In fact you posted in that thread, you've probably read it all already.

I just tried the negative g's because Kwiatek asked me for. Certainly he asked because he wanted that i observe something myself. But he do not come back to explain what.
