Spit/109 sea level speed comparisons in 1.08 beta patch

[Crumpp]

better climbrate but not necessarily better turnrate in typical combat situations.

The readers understand that a better climb rate is indicative of more excess thrust?

Once again, the Spitfire shines in lift limited performance while the Bf-109 shines in thrust limited performance.

this isnt all bad for the spit tho as this can be used so the plane behind overshoots and misses, i.e turning inside his turn so he cant get guns on you. puts you out of the fight but also keeps you alive, at least a while.
a 109 couldnt do this to a spit, this is why you go into a fight with a 109 always with higher energy or dont bother at all, so you can afford to loose that speed.

Any airplane can do this to another airplane.
