And Taildraggernut, you are promoting the theory that the Spitfire didn't flip over and started a spin if pulled too hard in a high speed turn?? Really???
Afaik this was used by experienced pilots as a last ditch maneuvre to escape from a 109 on their tail.
Are you suggesting that Spitfire pilots had to exploit a lateral instability as opposed to deliberately entering the spin by actually making pro-spin inputs? really?

putting an aircraft into a spin is a technique available to any pilot in any aircraft as a deliberate manouver.
