The issue was solved in the Spitfire Mk V!!
You understand that the bob-weights and subsequent empennage changes to the design were to fix the instability??
It is only a factor in the early Mark Spitfires..

True but you need to prove that he is only talking about Mk I and II. Its worth remembering that the fix wasn't in place for the start of Mk V production so you need to factor that in.
And you still need to prove that there were any bent wings in the BOB waiting repair let alone the statement you made. Without evidence you have no back up and its only another unsupported theory.
