as a regular spit and 109 flyer, heres what i would do, firstly a 109 can climb faster than a spit, remember this. A spitfire can out turn you at all speeds , but i have found that a spit will black out first in a high speed turn. Using full flaps in a turn(109) although will help you a little it will leave you vulnerable to other enemy spitfires.. rely on a wingman..the best way to turn on a spitfire(only if you have to) is by using the "wing over manouver" or the "scissors" although the latter is probably not advisable against the cw spit. I have been outmanouverd in a scissors manouver as the 109 has better roll rate .Remember in the hands of a good pilot the 109 is far superior than the spitfire. if you turn and burn against a spit you die.. take the fight to a spitfire on your terms, most lw planes are hunters and should be used in such a way. alt=energy = life
