The prop pitch is there to give you the best speed, something that isnt important in Stuka dive. :p

I saw that and it makes little sense.

Basically flying straight and level at 1000 metres as an average if you are wanting max speed would 100% prop pitch be just fine.
If you are dog fighting then one doesn't have time to muck about.

The pitch of the prop doesn't give you the best speed it'll give you the most efficient use out of your engine.
