Abundance.. Really? Well if there is an 'abundance' of 'proof' than it should be a simple task for you to 'pick one' and provide the link to it for review.. Right?

I have a beter idea..

As noted, I have 'looked' and have yet to see 'one' that would quality as 'proof'

But maybe I missed the one your refering to?

So since you seem to think there is an 'abundance' of 'proof', please pick the best one and provide the link to it for review, that way we are both on the same sheet of music

I guess that there has been similar data posted for other planes as well.
I like to avoid guess work

One field of our research are hypersonic planes. As any hypersonic plane has to accelerate through the subsonic velocity range (and deccelerate later for landing) we put some effort in studying subsonic aerodynamics. From all experience we have collected I can say one thing: there is not ONE single simplified method that can predict accurately the aerodynamic forces in the subsonic region (but some adequate approximations) for low and medium subsonic speeds. When the speed approaches transsonic speeds it basically gets guesswork.

Only halfway trustworthy aerodynamic results by calculation would be to do the fully viscous NS-equations (provided they can be solved correctly) but this is not at all practicable for a flight sim as the calculation for one flight point only (Ma, altitude, angle of attack, sideslip angle) would take a lot of time and we would need an enormous number of flight points in order to create a sufficiently large data base. And again, as a researcher who respects himself, I would request to verify some calculated points by wind tunnel tests ...

And we yet have not even talked about the damping coefficients which are even more difficult to assess by wind tunnel tests let alone determine by calculations ...
Agreed 100%

As I allready noted, no sim is perfect!

And no sim ever was, is, or will be equal to reality!

Hence the name 'simulation' in place of 'reality'

I knew that you would ask other ppl to do the search work for you.

Instead I now ask you to provide a proof that there is no data. I have not enough time to do this work for you. Remember: you brought up this whole: leave-it-as-it-is-because-there-is-no-proof thing. And please spare me anything like: "So you don't have proof". I know this argumentation strategy too well and it just bores me. You just look up the threads by yourself or proove that there is no data available. Otherwise I would just take you as of the same kind as all the others that you blame for making unfounded assertions.

Furthermore I come to believe that even if I or anybody else provided proof you would just call it to be no proof. You're a man on a mission. So any effort would be wasted on you imho.

As I knew you were talking out your A when you said there is an abundance of proof
