Gold Wing Practice 10/30/07
Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2007 1:50 am
Well I forgot to post a reminder in the forums and I shouldve sent out an email but I didnt do that either.
Pilots Attending-
Jonny- Gold WL
JoKeR- Red PO
Well since it was only 2 of us there, and again it was my fault for not reminding you guys unless u knew but real world needed attending to, we didnt do much of anything in the practice room. Me and JoKeR went up in a P51D and a Spitfire XIV to check out the speeds at different alts. I recorded the P51D since I was flying it and from memory I can remember:
12000ft - T:100, approx. 400mph ; T:WEP, approx. 410-415 mph level
15000ft - Similar to 12000 but maybe a difference in 1 mph
25000ft - T:100, approx. 410mph ; T:WEP, approx. 420mph level
30000ft - T:100, approx. 420-430mph ; T:WEP, approx. 435mph level, 435-440 with nose lowered then leveled to pick up and maintain some speed
40000ft - T:100, approx. 400-410mph.....I dont remember WEP because no plane can reach 400 that high anyways
I know that all this was already pre-recorded but since this is what we did, I posted again. Later on me and JoKeR went into teams with 16 other pilots and (surprise surprise) we were the only US. All others were GB and GE with 1 SU. USHA_Inferno played on US for a few minutes but after being shot down by 2 other USHAs switched over to join his squad. Nothing special happened during that time. I was very late with calling altitudes of the enemy when JoKeR asked so I need to shut-up and say only the important. JoKeR's computer started acting up again, and was having surges which made it hard for JoKeR to play. So then we said our good-byes and thats about it. This is my first post on a practice so if anyone thinks I left out anything I should put in next time just say so and I'll take note of it.
