Some interesting info there about the new planes I never realized.

For example, the P47-N is actually slower than the D at all alts without WEP. I knew it climbs slower with the same fuel load, but the WEP difference is like an added boost rocket.

Most should pick up on it, some will not...........regarding the new charts

the air speeds shown on the updated speed charts are for the RED marker , not the WHITE needle on the speedo gauge in your plane!!!

TAS = True Air Speed = Red Needle/Mark

IAS = Indicated Air Speed = White Needle/Mark
