Hi,the planes\vehicles\boat tab and the AHwiki tab doesnt work for me in the HTC sitehow can i compare level speeds, acceleration, climb rate atc?also find turn rate and radius, best sustaind turn speed, best climb speed and so on...?
that's an excellent tool TC, thanks alot!unfortunately i cant run any tests yet, but i already have in my mind a few things to try out...is there a source that concentrate in a chart the best speeds for max or sustained turns?for example: the P40e at sea level, 50%fuel - best sustained turn 10deg'\sec at 270mph, best max turn 17deg\sec at 350mph (this is fictional of course)
actually, m00t, murdr, Spatula, Lusche, Badboy and some of us others was working on a big ol spreadsheet showing a good big bit of info for all planes, including corner speed, sustained or instantaneous turn speed/turning at different notch of flap settings, etc...... a several years ago, I still have the google grp data saved in MS Excel somewhere on my home server......is quite interesting across the many different plane typesTC
Still, in all of this, developing an eye for "E" is the key.
How does that tell you max sustained and instantaneous turn rates, max level speeds, and climb rates?Isn't knowing the performance numbers the key to evaluating comparative energy states?
Don't get me wrong. Plane knowledge is very important . The "E" eye tells you what to do and when.
