Since David was unable, or unwilling to provide the real 'data' his claim is based on, I figured I would give it a quick look.
To see what all the fuss is about, ie are we talking about 10? 20? 30? 40? In doing so I found some 109G data but not E data, here is the sorce http://www.wwiiaircraftperformance.o...9/14026pg9.jpg Now it is really hard to read the speed axis, but it 'looks' like it goes 520 530 540 550 560 If that is the case, than the 'difference' in speed between open and closed is.. 5 kph Which is well within the pilot error noise Thus, IMHO, the only way to detect this small change is to log the data and account for the pilot errors PS correct me if I am wrong, but the rads on the 109 changed alot from the E to the G, so, assuming Jerry did a better job on the new rads, we can only assume that the older E rads caused more drag, and thus impacted speed more. But, even if the change was doulbe this, say 10kph, it is still well within the pilot error noise

That being a pilots's 'perception' of what is going on can be very different from what is 'actually' going on. Last edited by ACE-OF-ACES; 10-31-2011 at 05:17 PM. |
