I don't think HTC knows the real MAN values, so they're arbitrarily giving them one. Oddly, every Fw-190 has the SAME max MAN pressure here to within 3". If I could find a way to calculate the values from ATA to inches MAN I'd post the real values. But both times I asked no one knew how.

1.35 ata = 40.4" Hg
So 1 ata = 29.93" Hg = Sea level atmospheric pressure I believe?

D-9 ran at 1.8 ata with MW 50 iirc - that would be about 54" Hg.

Not to worry, probably 90% of the AH planes have incorrect functioning MAP gauges anyway...  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Close on see level atmospheric psi, but it is actual commonly agreed as being 29.92 inches of mercury.

Uhm, btw: the answer is YES.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

And the Fw 190A-8,F-8 should do 49".
