Um, are we supposed to go to the website the RFC was running in 1915, or what?

Okay, seriously, there were some tests done, and while they didn't involve computer sensors, the guys who built and tested aircraft weren't exactly cave men beating rocks together.

Mass production means quality control. Every plane that came out of the construction hangar was tested, which means there was some quantification of each model made.

Heck, there are enough flying versions of the major aircraft of WWI (well, maybe not the Eindecker or the DH-2) around today with original engines to get a darned close idea of how they performed.

The opinions of this poster are largely based on facts and portray a possible version of the actual events.
