One more from the RAE clearly showing better turn performance of the Spitfire in all regimes.
The RAE shows better turn radius in this chart. The Spitfire always has a better turn radius than the Bf-109.

Radius being just one parameter of turn performance and not the most important either.

Crummp, when the RAE refer to "normal bhp", do you know what the term "normal" refers to.
Not specifically. It appears to be RAM power because the chart list's power in flight.

At least then we are all able to work to the same assumptions and review each others work. It's be good to see how the manipulation of one or more of the variables influences tge overall outputs.
Exactly, once the parameters are input, the math does it's magic.
