The P-51 is a little more unforgiving than some other WWII fighters because
of it's high speed laminar-flow wing - this gives it speed and range, at the
cost of a more 'sudden' wing stall and a higher stall speed.

The Spitfire is more forgiving to fly because, due to a design quirk, it's
airframe actually gives a little shudder to warn you you're near a wing
stall state.


I've never flown a Spitfire, but if you miss the buffet on a Mustang you
must be brain-dead.

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.
