Title: Speeds are too high or being reported as higher than they are
Post by: Karnak on March 11, 2010, 08:43:48 PM

Having tested the Mosquito Mk VI, and the Spitfire Mk VIII, there is either a global bug causing all aircraft to be faster than they should be or a global bug causing air speed to be reported as higher than it is.

I reached 367mph on WEP at 200ft in the Mosquito, up from 338mph in 2.17.  I reached 362mph at 200ft in the Spitfire Mk VIII before auguring it intentionally, although it was still accelerating.  It also had a top speed at that altitude of 338mph in 2.17.

When I was flying the first night the WWI fighters were out, their speeds did seem a mite bit high to me, but I am not an expert on them so I shrugged it off.

Addendum:  Forgot to include that E6B was used for the tests, though the dials on the aircraft matched the E6B speeds.

As per this thread:

I had a full-fuel & -ammo Fw 190 A-8 at 390 on the deck according to the E6B, offline.

Yup, it's all across the board. On the deck, all plane planes are to fast by about 30 mph. La-7 doing 404 now at sea level.
