I don't consider this either political or military. The Spitfire and
Hurricane are classic aircraft and respected from a technological point of
view (speaking militarily, the Me109 was probably a more capable
fighting machine).

I think you should calm down. If people who post a lot of useful
information to this list want to engage in clearly highlighted light
relief, let them. I found the thread interesting to read but did not
contribute, partly because it was OT, so your heavy handed intervention
has only served to worsen the situation (now we are getting in to
military and political areas).
