shouldnt it go a bit higher? say about like the 190g10 in wep?

I don't think HTC knows the real MAN values, so they're arbitrarily giving them one. Oddly, every Fw-190 has the SAME max MAN pressure here to within 3". If I could find a way to calculate the values from ATA to inches MAN I'd post the real values. But both times I asked no one knew how.

1.35 ata = 40.4" Hg
So 1 ata = 29.93" Hg = Sea level atmospheric pressure I believe?

D-9 ran at 1.8 ata with MW 50 iirc - that would be about 54" Hg.

Not to worry, probably 90% of the AH planes have incorrect functioning MAP gauges anyway...

Close on see level atmospheric psi, but it is actual commonly agreed as being 29.92 inches of mercury.

10 nerd points for all of you!

Uhm, btw: the answer is YES.

And the Fw 190A-8,F-8 should do 49".
