I always throttle back and reduce revs in a dive to avoid over-revving the engine. Perhaps they have modelled over-revving and you exceeded the max? See attached. Although The Spitfire Pilots Notes are for the Spitfire I it covers Merlin II and Merlin III engines and the other attachment is the limitations for the Spitfire IIa with Merlin XII. Note what these say about the dive rpm limitations.

Looking in SPit MK II manual there is limiation for 87 Octan fuel ( + 9lb):

- climb ( 30 minutes) - + 9lbs at 2850 RPMs
- all level ( 5 minutes) - + 9 lbs at 3000 RPMs
- max dive (20 second limit) - + 9lbs at 3600 RPMs

I think i dont broke these limitation in my flights when my engine was a few times broken.

Also i notice that Spit dont slow on landing after touch down - it seemed like bug.

Strange for me is also rudder responsive expecially in 109 - i fly planes and gliders but it seemed that it is too high roll interia during rudder operation

Other thing are slats in 109 which open too late - at too low speed and too high angle of attack.

I think there are a few FM problems which should be noted and fixed.

One thing I noticed is that there are important differences between online and ofline flight when it comes to CTD.

I bought DESASTERSOFT adons, which is really good and well made. But when I have flown in ofline mode for about 30 minutes I get CTD. The same applies to the Quick mission. When I fly online (ATAG), I can fly for hours without it. Odd but nonetheless an event worth noting.

Anyone els have the same issus?
