yes alrdy discussed with even some kind of calculation.

Merlin flyer hve to keep in mind that flying was done a different way at the time (and nobody likes neg G).

Did the German had there an advantage ? Certainly. And this is why the allied took the efforts to cancel this by their own design. It's all abt BoB and post BoB.

This debate will be only legitimate if we were discussing a 1943 simulation.

Take it as it goes : as soon as your pushing the stick frwd your eng start starving -> RPM decrease slightly then rapidly -> eng sputter (single cylinder miss firing) then the carb is empty the eng stop -> traction vector is null, you feel instantly the drag that was compensated by the eng power (your pilot head shld lean frwd-> then the carb is full and cylinder flooded -> the eng rev is maintained by the prop and the air stream -> then eng restart -> Sputtering (rich condition) -> then back to normal.

Remember that at a time when fuel cells were not wallowed, pilots were used to experienced eng cut out while manoeuvring.

I really don't understand this debate. Change your habits pull and don't push... Easy. Damn nobody ask you to turn gay !
