ha, maybe today, but back in the days there was a lot of pioneering in design.. the early Macchi fighters and designs suffered from the torque snap rolls for design flaws, and it's not until the Macchi 202 that they introduced a wing longer than the other to compensate for it (and still wasn't enough..).

So if it's for the sake of sciences

But btw and I'msry If I blow all this lovely wall of smokes but 1300+ Hp for early merlin is still awfully overestimated. Did all the historians hve lied to us for such years ?

Before reading your reply I am packing all my books in the backyard with my diploma on top ready to set a holly fire

By the way : tail offsetting/twisting was a really draggy choice but used widely. Oh and don't forget were the torque act on the airframe to see it's a 3D prob tht need to be discussed with such a geo in mind (tip : early PushPull or Cessna 337 - Me 109)
