Thx for the help Vekkinho! Yeah that sounds about right.

Does anyone know how to establish maximum climb rates for the planes in FC2 (Su-27, F-15c, Mig-29s, Su-33)? Is there an instrument or rule of thumb for climbs? Here is some info on level acceleration for the Su-27 from FC2 that I generated with Lua. I'm not sure if this is relevant.
