Title: Tempest V
Post by: jmccaul on July 14, 2000, 06:03:00 PM

Not another yes - no arguement i was just wondering if anyone had a detailed performance breakdown - speeds at differing alt, climb rates, wing and power loading (with comparisons against it's contemporaries hopefully )

If thats not to much to ask  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I've seen 200rpg but I am not sure about that.
How much detail do the pilot notes go into?
