Hi All, After realising that with the amount of planes we now have, I cannot remember the correct spin recovery technique, or even the Max RPM of every single plane anymore. So I decided to review all the spin recoveries and performance information and put it all into a table so that it's not forgotten. I hope it's useful to the rest of you as well, I've uploaded it to the link below in A3 format to fit one page per side. ROF Quick Reference Thank you to piecost for letting me use his tests for maximum dive and corner speeds.

Jolly good stuff old chap. Much appreciated.
Will be interesting to see if and how this changes as each aircraft's FM's gets a revisit, S! 777 for doing so.
Cheers,

Absolutely brilliant!!! Couple of points. How can I make the print larger for ancient eyes? The other is has anyone worked out most efficient climb speed?
Do not be led into temptation. Find it for yourself

Hi, Yes its made to print on A3, on that size the print should be ok but if you squash it down to A4 it will auto-shrink which would be hard to read. If you haven't got an A3 printer at work or something, you could view as PDF on another screen or use alt-tab. Most efficient climb speed - would be very good to have! Same with effective stall speed. Not sure how to measure them though but if anyone does I'll add them.

Taipan, great job sir! Thanks for sharing this as it will indeed come in handy. The older I get and the more planes I buy I tend to forget the little things...
