Well, 90 is way too low. Minimum safety speed (in case of engine failure and so on) is 120 mph. It's a bomber after all
Climbing speeds are 150 mph up to 10000ft, reduced by 10mph every 5000ft after that:
150 mph until 10k ft
140 mph between 10-15k ft
130mph between 15-20k ft
The fact that the manual doesn't specify altitudes greater than 20k ft tells me it's generally inadvisable to fly higher than that
I guess it makes sense, keeping in mind
a) the RAF's preference for low level bombing tactics, they must have some reason behind it (lack of engine power? also point b below)
b) the fact that the bombsight has crude adjustment intervals for speed and altitude, that thing looks mighty inaccurate and according to another poster on this thread who tested it, there's a lot of dispersion and not enough bombs to effectively drop from higher altitudes.
I think i'll just bite the bullet and start copying the pilot's handbook tomorrow, it will save us all some trouble getting this thing to fly properly (me too, since i'll probably learn it better in the process)
