Ah, thanks, I couldn't remember who's 'Black Box' script that was that I found many months ago. Credit to FST then. I played around with it, added some more parameters, worked in 'Standard Day', set it so the data could be stopped and started with the gunsight switch, etc. The Excel analysis was a logical extension of gathering the data in .csv format.

If they ever fix the (online?)Merlin problems I'll go back to testing but its a bit of a drag especially when its pointless.

Incidentally the two sets of low level TAS figures I did manage to get were:
3000 RPM +6.25lbs boost:
1000 feet, 270mph vs A&AEE's 286mph
2000 feet, 273mph vs A&AEE's 291mph

3000RPM +12lbs boost
1000 feet, 302mph vs A&AEE's 318
2000 feet, 309mph vs A&AEE's 322mph

All at Density Altitudes or 'Standard Day'. Incidentally, Z_Altitude_MSL was 194 feet and 1227 feet at those Density Altitudes.
