The 'Great Debate' - Spitfire vs BF109

[CaptainDoggles]

Personally, I feel that debating the merits of each plane is just going to result in certain characters trotting out the same tired pilot anecdotes saying "Plane X out turns Plane Y" but without listing at what speeds and altitudes.

Then, people who don't understand science will extrapolate that statement to mean that Plane X should always win in a turn fight against Plane Y in all circumstances.
