Your diagram on post #42 didn't cover the external racks/ordnance in detail.quite correct and as I posted from the manual on post #42
Not sure what your problem is, but it's getting old...
Your chart does not have the external rack mounting diagram and it doesn't have the bomb hoisting outlay. As a matter of fact, my post had nothing to do with you, as it was for some other member's benefit.I don't have a problem, buy a mirror. You made the statement that my post didn't have the data on external loads, I posted the chart with the area a highlighted showing the external loads. Grow up.
And I cannot see anywhere in my post where I stated that yours didn't have data on external loads. What it does look like, however, is that you're trying really hard to find fault when there is none.Your diagram on post #42 didn't cover the external racks/ordnance in detail.
Not trying to find fault in anything as you claim. Refer to your post quote, you state "your diagram DIDN'T ..........", I replied and showed you it did. The chart doesn't need any pretty pictures. Let it go mate.Your diagram on post #42 didn't cover the external racks/ordnance in detail.
Your precious chart doesn't show the rack...but if you're so desperate to have accolades then pat yourself on the back for a special job well done - hopefully someone will give you a hug and a cookie soon.Not trying to find fault in anything as you claim.
