				Re: Performance of the Fw 190A on the Deck?
			 
			 
			
		
		
		I almost forgot 
one more theory on seemingly inconsistend performance at deck. FW 190A had air cooled radial but for ex Typhoon, Spit and P-51 had liquid cooled engines. According to Finnish tests on Bf 109G-2 fully open radiator flaps could decrease speed up to 50 km/h at low level, in LaGG-3 case the effect of the fully open radiator flap was appr. 15km/h.
