No need for me to explain it..
In that based on Erwin Leykauf quote, an actual WWII Bf109 pilot we know that it happened, i.e.

Agreed?
Or are you saying you know better than Erwin Leykauf? Or that Erwin Leykauf was lying when he said that?
Eitherway you seem a little confused..
Allow me to bring you up to speed!
Back on page 19 robtek ask for PROOF, i.e.

To which I did not bother providing in that I knew robtek would just poo poo anything I did provide
After that Crumpp felt the need to chime in with his cut-n-paste Bf109 myths site 'take on' what actual WWII pilots said as proof that uneven slat activation can NOT cause a spin because the Bf109 myth site,
FOR SOME REASON left that part of Erwin Leykauf quote out of thier section called "Wing leading edge slats - good or bad?".
My guess is that it was just to black and white for them to 'spin' (pun intended) what Erwin Leykauf said into something positive..
So the Bf109 myth site conventally left that part of the quote out of their section devoted to uneven slat activation issue.
Talk about poster boys for 109 bias!
After seeing that weak attempt by Crumpp to present the biased Bf109 myth site reinterpretation of WWII pilot quotes as proof I decided to post Erwin Leykauf quote here as PROOF of what I was saying
Hope that helps!
