Spit/109 sea level speed comparisons in 1.08 beta patch

[Crumpp]

Do you know what would happen if you entered a pure turn and burn (TnB) fight against a Spitfire (you in a 109)?

Sure, you would use the Bf-109's sustainable load factor advantage to put the Spitfire turning defensive circles beneath you until you killed him.

[Crumpp]

A second observation, can someone explain how the Me109 is supposed to have a better manoverability at higher speeds than the SPitfire when all the tests point out how difficult the 109 is to manoever at high speeds due to the way the controls stiffen up at high speed compared to the Spitfire?

Don't confuse high load factors found in instantaneous performance with low load factors achievable in sustained performance.

That's not the TnB mate.
