It is a myth that instability has positive effects on maneuverability.

Even your average R/C flyer could tell you just how much rubbish the above statement is.
You don't win aerobatic championships by flying an inherently stable trainer.
Nor can you fly an aerobatic championship winning aircraft hands off for very long.
As to the Spit being 'easy to fly', the key word which is always missing is 'relatively'. Otherwise anyone with a pilots licence could've been selected for fighter training . They weren't. There was a rigorous selection procedure which many pilots did not get through and were sent to other, non-fighter training units.
I still fail to realise what your thread is trying to prove.
