I have no idea whether or not it is turning to well, but I don't think that it is climbing too well.

Seems to climb just about right to me.

Well I found climb rate for Me-262: 3940ft/min(<-Edited,Thx Swager :)).

Me-262 was 800-1000kg lighter than P-47 (Both empty and max. weight) so I guess it really climbed that fast.

Not sure if these numbers are right but they might give some explanation.

Me-262 Empty weight 3800kg/wing area 21,7m2 = 175kg/m2 wingload.
Max. weight 7130kg/wing area 21,7 = 328kg/m2

P-47-D-30 Empty weight 4812kg/wing-area 27,9m2= 172kg/m2
Max.Weight 7900kg/wing-area 27,9m2=283kg/m2

Light Me-262 has almost same wingload than light P-47.

*Initial* climb rate of the Me262A-1 (fully loaded) was something less than 4,000ft/min, as Staga posted. At 6.000mt (about 19,700ft) climb rate was about 2,100ft/min. Time to 6,000mt was about 6'50".

Well I guess climb is OK but how about turning?I can dogfight pretty much anyting in it,without really using any E management.

BTW I`m dedicated LW debating a LW plane being too good,does it qualify to the luftwhiner category?

LOL Staga, I posted those data to show that the Mossie climbs pretty well, imho, even at 20K   :)
BTW, my little 205 takes more than 6' to get there ... Really, I thought the Schwalbe was a bad climber.

Caligula all I know is light Me-262's wing-load is only slightly worser than light Me-109G-6's, 175kg/m2 for Me-262 against 167kg/m2 for Me-109G6 if numbers I have are correct.
