Re: Max bomb loads to distances for BC 4 engine bombers
I assume the fuel allowance included the indirect approach as that was calculated in the total mileage. As for the climb, one would imagine that was somewhat (altho' being empty on the way back, not completely) compensated by the descent needing less + the return trip probably using less. Ground speed v.v. air speed might effect it though. The 200 gal was a reserve?
Is there similar data for either the Merlin or PW engined Halis?
