The Spitfires Longitudinal stability characteristics are well defined and measured. The NACA and Air Ministry were very much aware of it.
First of all there is no need for the little blue sarcastic face, secondly....start a new thread to discuss what?
the Spitfires Longitudinal stability characteristics were actually quite unremarkeable and yes that 'is' very well documented, can you explain why the P-40 was not allowed to spin or flick roll? these seem to be important facts you use to back up claims about Spitfire stability issues.

Sorry? i ask if something you posted is relevant and you say it's not, but as it's in this thread and I felt the need to enquire then why do I need to start another thread?

Please quit with the sarcastic tone.
