Gents time to all step away from the keyboard a bit and try and keep it from being personal. I dont want to have to lock the thread but I will if you cant all play nice!
And im not singling anyone out, your all as bad as one another in different ways.
Which often happens with us passionate lot but please have a bit of humility and humour in your discussions as if you were a couple mates having a good old disagreement over a beer at the pub! If you can discuss with that kind of banter and respect it will be more fun for everyone. REMEMBER NO ONE IS WRONG OR RIGHT im 99% of these discussions, it is discussion of opinion. Facts can be interpreted differently or differing accounts can be made for just about every claim or published article ever made on the spit, the 109 and most of the era's aircraft. Please remember you are not automatically right just because you found something on the "interweb". None of us are experts in testing and we are presenting and interpreting data without the proper training to do so.
So have I made it clear we are all here to learn and discuss and not make things personal, and also try not to take everything personally???
Sometimes its hard I know but please give it go gents.
