AHWIKI: Aircraft Performance Table Question

[oneway]

If anyone has experience in the posting of or how the performance tables end up in the WIKI Planes section I have a question:

Where does the data come from to produce those charts?

Are they simple screen grabs from in game menu choice?

Are they created by actually flight testing the aircraft?

Are they provided by HiTech ?

Do they have anything to do with the Performance Comparison external to WIKI link at the bottom of the main table?

The Performance Comparison utility obviously creates the charts on the fly from an underlying data store...NEXT Question:

Does anyone know how that data store is created?

Is it created by flight testing?

Is it created via the actual performance modeling of the aircraft used in game?

Any thoughts whatsoever appreciated...

The bottom line is I want the data without out having to flight test myself...

Thanks

You have to understand Wiki. ANYONE CAN POST ANYTHING, lol They post what they feel is "Correct", in own mind.
Answers from Wiki can be TOTALLY WRONG!!!

as I understand it, the charts are generated directly from the aircraft and world models (ie using the same drag/thrust calculations as ingame) so should be exactly the same as ingame performance. I think that answers all your questions in one go

If anyone has experience in the posting of or how the performance tables end up in the WIKI Planes section I have a question:

Where does the data come from to produce those charts? from the game data for each planes ingame performance / abilities

Are they simple screen grabs from in game menu choice? kind of the same as you get via the E6Bper plane in game, they just kind of over lay to make it easier to compare

Are they created by actually flight testing the aircraft? I figure it is kind of like Badboy's bootstrap calc /or his spread sheet... or like Spatula's spreadsheet prog   ... HTC has all the figures already and prob has coaded some type of prog to scrape the data needed for the charts...

Are they provided by HiTech ? Y most certianly....

Do they have anything to do with the Performance Comparison external to WIKI link at the bottom of the main table? is all the same info

The Performance Comparison utility obviously creates the charts on the fly from an underlying data store...NEXT Question:

Does anyone know how that data store is created? not meaning to sound smart........ it compiles it from the game I would think ... each planes performance data.... 0's & 1's 

Is it created by flight testing? yes & no....... moe so flight testing by slide rule??? I would say

Is it created via the actual performance modeling of the aircraft used in game?

Any thoughts whatsoever appreciated...

hope I was helpful if only but a lil bit.......      oneway

That answers most of it if not all of it...

But when I say I want the data, that means I want the underlying data to manipulate myself in a computer program that would be used for plotting courses and routes and calculating time to and between waypoints...

Thus I need the actual data points for both climb rate and speed at various altitudes...

A third party mission planner in other words...
