Spitfire Turning

Painless and I did a Joint Ops training mission this evening/afternoon and both of us learned an interesting fact that neither of us were aware of. Because of torque the Spit turns much better to the right than the left so if you get into to a turning fight go right young man.

You still get killed but it takes longer!

As I understand it, the roll rate is greatly increased when a wing is shot off as well! I believe that BG has conducted many experiments in this area. :lol:

Seriously though, that's good to know. I'll have to try it out in other planes as well. Thanks for the heads up!
