Stability and Control characteristics of the Early Mark Spitfires

[Crumpp]

Crumpp claimed right at the start of this thread that only the Americans and Germans had adopted standards for stability and control

You don't seem to grasp the difference between research and adopted standard.

This is an adopted Standard:

You keep making these claims without proof.

Go search the forum. I have posted the document.

You can buy the book yourself too and read it.

It is pretty interesting.

seems the Spitfire is getting a character assasination

Read the thread. Spitfire is just the first one.

The history is interesting but a sideline. Start another thread if you want to discuss it.

The Spitfires Longitudinal stability characteristics are well defined and measured. The NACA and Air Ministry were very much aware of it.

Why exactly is this relevant in any case?

It is not to this thread about the Spitfire. So please start another thread if you want to discuss it.
