109 cant do XXXX anymore.

Let's examine this passage....

For us, the more experienced pilots, real manoeuvring only started when the slats were out. For this reason it is possible to find pilots from that period (1940) who will tell you that the Spitfire turned better than the Bf 109. That is not true. I myself had many dogfights with Spitfires and I could always out-turn them.

So basically what this pilot is saying is that the Spitfire pilots who report being able to out-turn a 109 are not to be believed. But we are supposed to take his word as truth when the situation is reversed?

I myself had many dogfights with Spitfires and I could always out-turn them.

And as he just said "it is possible to find pilots from that period (1940) who will tell you that the Spitfire turned better than the Bf 109."

But we're not supposed to believe them, so that's OK.

Mmmmm.....

And don't get us started on the relative skills of the pilots involved, the condition of the airframes, condition of the engines, relative energy levels during the turns etc...etc....

In CoD I've out-turned both Spitfires and Hurricanes many times in the 109, but I can still say with confidence that the 109 does not turn as well as either British aircraft.
