Elevator response is not quite so brick-like as it was in 1946 but then again these are emils we are flying, and not the G or K series.

As to posting my C++ source code I will be a bit stingy and keep that to myself. I'm actually working on a book project so I need it for my own selfish purposes. I do understand your scepticism though. I would not buy a pig in a poke either. I guess that means you need to apply a healthy dose of scepticism to my posts
Sad to hear. I am a big proponent of open source software but to each their own. Would it hurt your profits from the book?

Perhaps, once we get a good idea of how the atmosphere and aerodynamics are modeled in the sim, we could run some analyses using a free tool like OpenFOAM which I've used in the past. I may PM you in the future to pick your brain about simulating this stuff, Holtzauge

Would be nice if you could post some results though. If you have an idea about an alternative dive scenario, either Me109 or Spit Mk1 just let me know and I could model that as well.
I will once I'm able, though I doubt my ability to hold a constant dive angle as precisely as a simulation
