Re: Focke-Wulf Fw 190

That P-51 incident sounds scary. I also wonder how much of a dive the 190 was put into if it was done by a pilot who was used to a 109. I had read the 109 could not be put into a steep dive because a sharp pull up at the end could tear the wings off. I don't know it that is right or not though - maybe they didn't have enough polish on it ?

And yes, I could believe that.
