Re: Hurricane - glide rate
Read in AP1564A Hurricane I- Merlin II
"Gliding. With flaps and undercarriage down a good average gliding speed is 80 m.p.h. A.S.I. reading with the engine running slightly faster than idling speed. Approach The normal method of approaching to land is by means of straight glide(at the speed mentioned above) If for any reason a landing is being made with the flaps up increase the approach speed by 10 m.p.h. A.S.I. reading."
