Re: Performance of the Fw 190A on the Deck?

Totally non-technical I'm afraid. But the chart by M. Degnan is a bit misleading in showing the P-47D of March 1944 when the chart gives the time frame as 1943. By the time of the P-47's tests there would also have been the P-51B in service in addition to the new generation of 605AS-powered 109s. And, since the B-17 is mentioned it would have been interesting to see its performance also.

Anyway, an interesting thread.
