I didn't know there was a download version of the MAAM DC-3. I live and learn. :D I have the CD Version (Eighth Edition), upgraded to clickable VC and ported to FSX.

I would buy a Shockwave DC-3 without a second thought, but I would buy and have bought everything they have made so-far.. The Douglas DC-3 is my favourite aircraft of all time too. The MAAM Sim package is very, very good - it can be made to work in FSX with their free patch. All the profits from the...

Hello Michael. :D
I refer to page 29 of the 33 page .PDF manual as downloaded with the B-17 package. The part which is a facsimile of the original B-17 manual. It's only a small reference, but it's there in mine at least.
Best wishes.

If you refer to page 29 of 33 of the .PDF manual, (Flight Characteristics section, not Landing section as we expected). There is a "Power Off Stalling Speeds-Wheels Up chart" indicating airspeed at various weights with none, half and full flap flight. It covers both B-17F and G models. Hop...

Keep up the good work.

Indeed! But Sally B's a B-17G. She was made up as Memphis Belle...
