    The real combat history of the Ki-43

    A couple of books that have a good amount of information in them on the Ki-43 I've collected though decades. They're links to my Google Drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/13kxYJnd-nZhS92ZHxCcvcSXkcbMIiqhZ/view?usp=share_link...

    Seeking Info Re: Luftwaffe Ground Crews, Manuals, etc.

    Don't know if there's anything I've collected through 30+ years has what you desire, but here's links to my Goggle Drive for German Aircraft. Enjoy looking for what you want. I don't believe there's anything about the ground crews though. I do believe there's some maintenance discussed in the...

    A6M5a Aerodynamics Data

    Maybe these can help you find what you need. I've collect data/stuff for 30+ years helping different Aircraft Simulations starting with Air Warrior and continuing on to even today with iEnt Warbirds Sim. A new version is planned to be released at the end of August. Hopefully these will help you...

    F4U Harmonization Charts

    Don't know if either of the 2 I have for the F4U are better than what you have, but use what I've saved through the years; follow the google drive folder link and download them. There's also convergence charts for a number of other American fighters, 109E and 190 in the folder. Enjoy...

    Rate of Climb for different BF-109 series

    I'm wondering which game. I've been involved with the multi-player flight sims since Air Warrior days. Some changes were made 8 years ago to my long time game by a person who would listen at first to suggestions of using this data and not that, but as usually happens they decided they were the...

    Razorback P-47 horsepower question

    I've gathered stuff for 25+ years to help game developers starting back in the day of large online multi-player games that include just about every aircraft used in WW2. Here's a link to my GD folder stuffed with P-47 data from many sources. Have a field day folks...

    Ki-61 with DB601?

    Off the top of my head it was around 150 lbs., but give me some time to find that data in my stash on GD and HD's.

    Ki-61 with DB601?

    It wasn't an exact copy of the DB601 that was developed, but a lightened version that the Japanese had serious problems with crankshaft issues. But to answer your question, you already answered it. As GregP posted.

    Fw 190D and Me 109K vs. Yak-3 and La-7

    Yes I've seen those pilot reports and just like pilot stories told; they were what the pilot "remembers" at the time he was engaged in catching, shooting or getting shot down. Those stories even include using 75" of boost in the merlin and British pilot reports state they were using 80" of...

    Fw 190D and Me 109K vs. Yak-3 and La-7

    I'm relatively sure HP is PS in the figures your showing. 1750PS = 1726HP 1900PS = 1874HP. Yes I know not much difference and just wanting to be talking apples to apples, plus some on the forum might be new folks who wouldn't know the difference. As for all motors a boost increase will raise...

    Fw 190D and Me 109K vs. Yak-3 and La-7

    I've personally in the past 40 years had chats with many (over 30) fighter pilots in the armed forces and most never used WEP in combat. The few that did use it said it was in desperation of usually trying to catch a fleeing enemy or in a non-combat situation to see what that extra power was...

    Fw 190D and Me 109K vs. Yak-3 and La-7

    One instance that has been put in writing about what using Special Emergency Power might cause. "Czypionka admired both the Mosquito and its crews. "That airplane, it was so beautiful, it flew so well, I almost hated to have to try and shoot at it." In truth, the Nachtjagdgeschwader pilots had...
