fw 190a5 flight model

Personally, I found that flying sims, once I got past rookie level, gave me a lot of insight into what many combat stories and Robert Shaw were saying.

When you include superior energy and tactics, like what accounts of FW-190's vs Spitfire V's over the channel tell, even EAW delivers.

But don't just take my word for the modeling in IL-2 when there's been a whole trail of aerobatics pilots and at least one test pilot say it's good.

The actual historic test data of the real FW's have been used is both table-driven and model-driven flight sims (as opposed to arcade games) and the FW's behave pretty much the same on turning, they won't turn inside Spits with both planes at low speed and co-alt but they will at higher speed, see IL2Compare for an idea where.

Look up clean stall speeds; FW at 110 mph to 130 mph and Spitfires at 80 mph to 95 mph. Spits have the power to sustain over 3 G's, I expect the FW to be in the same range but have to be faster to do it *or* simply use the vertical and occasionally be able to pull lead instead of the constant lead you can hold when turning inside a target. You don't have to have the better turning plane to get inside a target, you just need more energy.
