- spiral climb -> need I quote again from the first point above? guess not..

and remember, everything of the above with planes having approximately same energy. if the spit has more, then you'd better say your prayer..
I'm sorry, but are you suggesting that the Spitfire can actually do these things? I would like to congratulate you for teaching all the red pilots how to handle the Spitfire within a few goes at it because for the past year clearly everybody else has been doing it wrong. I'm mightily relieved that it's been my inadequacies all along and nothing to do with the FM itself. Thank you so much for teaching us all a lesson!!!

1C, please take note and scrap any idea of making edits in the Bugtracker, we don't need a new patch after all because adonys has shown us that we're just rubbish pilots.
