The problem is, that crumpp doesn't present claims, he presents documented facts!
The claims are coming from those, who are unwilling to accept those facts.
To recapitulate those facts, as i understood them, in concentrated form:
1. The early Spitfire marks had a inherent longitudal instability which led to the manufacturer-fix with bob-weights.
2. The stick forces for the elevator were extraordinarily small in the Spitfire.
3. The stick travel was extrordinarily small for large reactions.
It really doesn't matter how good the pilots then were able to cope with those circumstances, it should be reflected in game that the plane doesn't fly itself, but has to be flown, and that with precise, small inputs for the elevator.
Also the tests shown by crumpp say that if one doesn't ride the buffet in a turn, but gets into the buffet, the turn performance is reduced drastically.
It is up to the fm programmer to make it possible to feel the difference in game.
Every aircraft has its quirks, and i think we want them all represented in this game.
