Only when the other thugs try to castrate the Spitfire.

I don't consider asking the developers to model accurate handling characteristics to be a castration.

Accurate by whose standards? Ok let's see how it goes when Crumpp starts the apparent topic on the 109.

Well, according to the docs that Lane posted, the A&AEE's standards.

I'll be just as active in that thread as I am in this one. See you there.

Would you mind pointing out where those standards show clearly how dangerous and what a 'death trap' the Spitfire allegedly is?

I never said it was dangerous, or a death trap, and neither do the A&AEE's conclusions.

Sowhat exactly is the point of this thread? Crumpp certainly seems to be saying that and you are avidly defending him.

The Bf-109 is another thread.

This one is about the measured flying qualities of the early mark Spitfire. That means the ones in the game.

I highly recomend you don't hold your breath waiting on that one!
