**i got this from an aircraft performance site,talking about flight testing a p47
**** **Maneuvrability ****** No acrobatics were tried but rolling into turns and changing directions is very easily accomplished because of very light aileron forces. Rudder and elevator have somewhat heavier forces but not objectionably so. The radius of turn is large and the stick forces become very heavy in a turn requiring both hands on the stick. ****** The water control switch is objectionable because it must be held "on" by the pilot. This occupies the pilot's left hand and he cannot trim the plane or use both hands on the stick which is necessary to make a tight turn. ****** G. **Stalling Characteristics ****** There is sufficient warning to the pilot of a stall. Slight buffeting of elevators can be felt in the stick, especially with cowl flaps open. Landing is not recommended with cowl flaps open because of false warning of stall and buffeting of elevator. Another warning of a stall is a jerking of the stick to the left. It will snatch the stick from the pilot's hand if he is holding it losely. The stall is normal and the nose falls straight forward and normal recovery is easy. ****i
then add the chance of a bullet going through control surfaces,and a chance of a deflection shot on a passing aircraft,surely two hands on stick during combat ,
but could be wrong,im not a ww2 fighter pilot
