the spit requiring more lbs of force, but having more room and stick travel to achieve it.
This also follows comments made by pilots who flew both types.
Test conditions are important however. Two 109s and two Spits from different period/role may all be very, very different animals in all respects. These guidelines are for a MkII or MkV Spit and Emil or early series Friedrich, yes? I would assume MkII and Emil, the typical comparison for wartime appraisals between the types, or a MkVb and F-2.
