Re: Japanese pilot opinions on the J2M

Graham, shouldn't manoeuvrability be considered as a combination of rates of turn and roll? Sakai's account also claims that the P-51 was more manoeuvrable. Was it? Probably the P-51 rolled faster, but very likely the J2M turned better, especially with its Fowler flaps deployed.
