Title: UFO-D
Post by: TT on December 12, 1999, 09:42:00 PM
 I dont know anything about real aircraft. Could someone tell if a P51 could drop flaps at 500IAS and turn into a spit. Do flat turns for 3 min. than raise flaps and climb like a bottel rocket.

  The P-51D and K were placarded as having a Vfe of 405 KIAS for the first notch...

  Now, as to the turn performance, I can't comment on that.  The acceleration seems about right to me BTW, as does the climb of the P-51D in AH (but then, I'm never flying with less than full fuel, I suspect many of the claims of 4000fpm sustained climbs come from reduced fuel load...)

That's not helpful.
