do you want to add this one? This VSAERO analysis by Lednicer and Gilchrist are excellent computer model analysis comparisons to wind tunnel tests.

Paul - here is the Lednicer P-51, Fw 190 and Spitfire model development and results using VSAERO.

Probably should place a copy in the Spitfire and Fw 190 subsections
