Well, will dig into sources first. But it is clear that Baugherīs data is not too reliable. His data seems to be mostly based on standard books like the Putnam series which means that e.g. the power setting used to get the data is missing. It is obvious from the P-47 climb data, that WER with ADI is not used.
Range data for escort purposes should allways be based on the cruising speed used by the escorted bombers. Some data in AHT uses IAS that is very favorably to the P-51 (the same as its best range IAS, co-incidence? I donīt think so.)
