I Am having a brain fade and seniors moment concurrently - I have had it many times before but cannot locate where all the different a/c specs and operating limits are located.????

 

Someone help an old fart please.

Also if you want the ones for the specific plane you are about to fly in a mission, you have to find the "Specifications" tab top right, after you have pressed start the first time and before you press it the second time to actually start.  (It confuses me too).

Thanks unreasonable, I knew I would feel like a dick when I found out, and indeed I do. (Considering I have been playing theirs since it’s inception).

Would be nice to have on the game a complete grafics about TAS ans Climb of rate to compare between planes. 

Description just give some speeds but you can not see the optimal curve to see how the change of stages decrease the speed etc.

I think they have left that so that we can have something to do when we are not killing one another, or blowing stuff up. Or so that the obvious Red bias is concealed, at least except from those capable of critical and independent thinking.  (Do I really have to add a ;)  here?  Yes: OK.  ;) ).   

 

In RoF for instance, Seaw0lf took the time to produce exactly these kinds of charts. Very interesting they were too, if you wanted to fly a nerfCamel. BTW if you were under the illusion that I thought that the developers had always got it right - or even close to right - a read through several year's worth of RoF threads should set you right.

 

Nothing to stop you from spending a couple of hundred hours of flying time to produce these charts yourself.

You can see, somewhat, that on a manifold pressure dial - if it drops so then there goes performance. Some planes at some altitudes/speeds care about rpm/pitch settings too.
