I don't quite see why are you addressing this to me, as I was commenting on the origin of your 'Spitfire' - which we now know to be a Spit VA with metal ailerons, not a canvas covered one. You're storming a castle with open gates..

Because I don't think that the fast rolling Spitfire is actually any faster than the other; I think they're basically the same and differ only in the stick forces applied. Therefore I don't think that there's anything particularly "exceptional" about the results.

If you look at the curves in the deflection limited region, you'll see that the roll rates are basically the same, so the difference is simply caused by the different stick forces applied in the tests.
