Spit/109 sea level speed comparisons in 1.08 beta patch

[Crumpp]

the only trained test pilots in the world

That is a good point. We are talking about the test pilots who felt the Bf-109 was "embarrassed" by the slats opening in the turn.

I would not be surprised if the pilots did not operate the propeller at its most efficient point at the single data point the RAE used. That would throw off all of Gates assumption for the entire envelope.

In order to reproduce the RAE results, I have to drop the propeller efficiency to below average and assume VDM could not properly design a propeller.
