He said "ingame", and he's right knowing the skill of many players out there (myself too): it's not a matter of plane, it's a matter of how hard they pull the stick.

There was a problem in IL2 1946 v4.10 about the 190s' negative G-force: with the stick's linear setting at 100 you had not to push the stick at high speed at all since the wings would come off (many times it's happended to me and my teammates, and my main KIA reason): instead you could pull as you want.

If I understand correctly Robtek asks to have the same effect linked to the pull up manouvre in a Spitfire (but far weaker compared the one above, that was horrible and I noted that in HSFX6's Hellcats!): in this I fully agree with him.

A whole generation of pilots learned to treasure the Spitfire for its delightful response to aerobatic manoeuvres and its handiness as a dogfighter. Iit is odd that they had continued to esteem these qualities over those of other fighters in spite of the fact that they were of only secondary importance tactically.Thus it is doubly ironic that the Spitfire’s reputation would habitually be established by reference to archaic, non-tactical criteria.
