Nope, in that case I would have thrust watts but I did not calculate that out from the calculation.

I said you wouldn't understand a dimensional analysis. It is pretty obvious that a discussion with you cannot go anywhere. Don't mistake a lack of response with being correct.

Bill was refering to the muliple times you have confused them over the course of the thread Harri. Not a carefully worded response your Kabuki theater.

Yes and no. Graham in my opinion correctly pointed out that the change of weight caused by fuel consumption of an average WWII fighter is just too small to be considered important factor while discussing the maximum speed. Theory is generally correct but it has some limitations, especially if we discuss profile of the mission.

That theory is very much like saying a small cancer tumor is not important.

Not one aerodynamic text can be found that states weight is unimportant because one of the affects is a relatively small reduction in top level speed.

Obviously references are available. One has to wonder why there are not used.

Lets quote the Hamilton Standard Red book:

All the best,
