F4F Wildcat, turn and roll rates?

[MikeGazdik]

I have searched through previous posts and information posted in the Techinical section. I was interested in finding the roll rates, turn rates and other perfomance statistics on the Wildcat.

Has this been covered before? Sorry if I missed it.

From what I remember the F4F's roll rate was kind of slow...

Great post Fubar, I see that pesky FW 190 up there at the top, it must be some sort of mistake.

I didn't realise that removing the wing tips had such a pronounced effect.
