It looks like Pyro has posted speed and climb charts on the website.  I was waiting for things to settle down a bit before diving into any extensive testing.  I don't really wanna have to do it all over again for every version.  I will do turn and climb tests myself to find best climb speeds and climb rates at various speeds, so you can see where one plane might overtake another.  I may also do the e-retention test by spiral dive method as buile had done for some planes in WB.  At least there aren't 50+ planes here to test (yet), so thinking about the time involved isn't as much of a deterant...hehe

Some of those plane pages (F4U and P-51) are excellent.  I hope they get a chance to bring the others up to snuff.

Also I noticed there is no Spitfire Mk. IX page.  That is because the flight model for our plane is classified.  Our Polish mechanics have souped her up so much that we can't reveal the technological secrets.     (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

We're working on more write-ups, should have some more up soon.  

Wells, I will have to make a few minor corrections in the next version on speed and climb at altitude and wep performance to align them to what has been posted in the performance charts.

I put up a page of partial data that I've collected from version 1.01.  It's not complete as you will see, but I figured it was better to put up something than nothing.  It will take a few hours to complete the charts, which I should be able to do in the next 2 days.

Hi pyro (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Can you provide performance and climb data in a table, not in a graph?

And I wanna  both IAS/TAS speed performance data.

I've compiled some flight test data for AH Planes, but I have to admit it doesn't include turn performance data as yet, and some of the recent planes have not yet been tested.

One day I'm gonna have to get my stopwatch out again and recheck all the figures  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
