Stability and Control characteristics of the Early Mark Spitfires

[Fenrir]

You present this like it's some revelation Crummp.

If you have done *any* research you'll have read Quill's book, which you should have done considering you're talking about the Spitfire and it's flying characterisics as it's practically source point one - he test flew the aeroplane in all it's marks over 10 years and countless hours - this makes him somewhat more credible than you, so you'll forgive me if I take his word over your clearly subjective posts.

The point is addressed fully and sufficiently in there to make all your posting here as redundant it is cherry picked.

I'm not going to bother posting it here, if you're serious about research, and truly objective you'll read it and come back here and retract some of this frankly irksome Spitfire smear campaign.

Otherwise you seem to have chosen same tactics as in the FTH discussion so my part end here now.

What "tactic" is that?

You mean showing you the question on an A&P exam?

If a turbo engine is rated at 310 HP up to 18,000', the altitude specified is pressure altitude?


False, the altitude specified is density altitude

Start another thread on the weight and balance or send me a PM. I would be happy to walk you through the steps in determining percentage MAC.

It is not that hard to do. You will understand it and see how ridiculus the theory the NACA could not do one really is!!

In presenting a February 1944 weight and balance document and for the purposes of this discussion on 1940 Spitfires:

You have presented the solution to the problem in an effort to claim the problem never existed.
