Its not imposible, its just very hard until you find a way to land the spitfire with a high percent success rate. Different people seem to find different ways to do that. Evangelous (SEE) can land the spitfire all the time in CTA sim matches without tipping up, he uses a flightstick an uses his guns at the right time to slow down. But if I try to use his technique with the joypad using guns instead of brakes I allways end up facing downwards in flames. My way is to come down gently on all 3 wheels using my trim, not to use too much elevator once you are down, apply brake, then at 31/32mph let off the brakes and pull hard back with the elevtor. This works for the Fw190's aswell.

Another thing about landing these planes on sim is i'm almost convinced that unlimited ammo with bombs does make the MkIX/MkXVI/Fw190F imposible to land. I think the game adds the weight of 30 odd bombs onto your fighter and makes the tip over far stronger so nothing can stop it. I can land almost every time with a spitfire with 1 or 2 bombs on limited ammo but never can I keep it on 3 wheels on unlimited.

One last thing. Anyone else think this game is obsessed with explosions.
Plane tips over = Explosion.
One landing gear snaps on landing. 90% of the time this = Explosion.
Planes wing bumps 3 times into hanger/house/tree at 0.001mph = Explosion.
Plane ditches into water (water landing), seconds later = Watery Explosion.
