Don't know about the three jets you are talking about but in essence you are talking about max performance and if the max perf numbers are just fiction, what else is just fiction?
On some of the old Boeings I flew, numbers were very important.
And are you
bragging that you don't have a flt manual?
Just wondering. Most interesting.
