Good program, I love Guy Martin's enthusiasm, bit like Fred Dibnah but less irritating.
I loved it, Mrs J can't stand him !

Indeed, there was a good semi-documentary thing on TV a few years back where they compared the 109 to the Spitfire, very interesting and raised the points you mention.
Lovely looking thing for a instrument of death and destruction!
I noticed Guy says "eh?" after each sentence.
Spitfire is alright, Supermarine had their early days around these parts, sea racing in the 20's and 30's around Calshot.
I've always fancied a Stuka Dive bomber, Junkers Ju 87 myself. You know to dive the hell out of everyone with the air siren on.
Got to be less of them around than there are Spitfires. Surely.
That is a cool airplane.
The horn of jerico IIRC (the siren). Proper fear tackics. I didn't know until recently that the dive bombing was actually an automated process, although the experienced Pilots turned it off knowing that allied fighters could easily pick them off as the plan flew it's bombing manoeuvre
