Im full aware that Tempest Mk II should also be on that list but I just can't seem to find the source for the exact SL performance.
Do you have the exact source link?Is that a Bell Aircraft Corp Company chart? Yeah, Bell tended to ah, 'fudge' their test results.
It shows a performance level the USAAF test pilots certainly could not obtain at max power setting,
since in their official tests (WEP/75" Hg/ADI/1820hp), the P-63 only made "366.0mph" at "0 ft".
Same location as the graph you showed also appears: P-63 Performance TestsDo you have the exact source link?
