The comparison is not valid. You can refer to cancer discussing corrosion, but not speed. Simply if you have few pounds more or less on your body it will not affect your performance. If you are 100 lbs overweight, then it will. I consider that due to low speed we do not discuss aerodynamics of human body.

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.
What for? Everyone who calculated performances will know.

Obviously references are available. One has to wonder why there are not used.
Use your references and show us on an equation a full formula for P-51 speed. Please explain us what percentage of speed is affected by what percentage of factor.
