Not sure how much it relates to the game really but I know there are people on here who like this sorta thing.

(might see if I can find a few more Pilot notes, would make a good thread)

try this site

http://www.wwiiaircraftperformance.org/

it has pilots notes, performance info and even has some some perfornace comparisons like http://www.spitfireperformance.com/spit9v109g.html which compaires the spit Mk IX against the 109g

This is the site where I read the data.

Most of the combat aircraft of the time had fairly similar landing speeds. It's not until you get into jets, or unusual aircraft like the Martin B-26, that landing speeds get to be trickier than 160kph-240kph. Also, I've noticed most planes have a marker on their airspeed indicator for the their safe landing speeds.
