Maybe it's me, but I never really heard of the SPAD being maneuverable. If you consider all of the light rotary engined scouts that the Allies fielded, then the SPAD is probably near the bottom of the list in terms of maneuverability.
I've always heard the SE5a to have great high alt performance, and considering the stalling of the SPAD, I'd venture to say the SE5a was more maneuverable at slower speeds.
Considering that the Germans fielded mainly heavy inline engined scouts as well, I'd don't think the SE5a and SPAD's turning ability was much of a negative except when they'd attempt a turning battle with a Fokk DrI.
