No prob! The B747s as well. Not sure for the -200 but from what I learned, it’s 0.85 for the -400.

Im pretty sure the -200 was that slow. As for the -400 it really all depends. I will put .85 because its more commonly used. Thanks. If you see anything else dont hesitate to tell me. I want to get this list as accurate as possible.

The service ceiling the the A350 is 43000ft

#11

What’s this in IAS? The C130 family rarely flies above 28,000.

Please do correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought this one was M 0.74?

#12

Who remembers this piece of trash, i’m sorta glad they replaced it with the Xclub

#13

i thought the crj-200 was cruise Mach .74 and max Mach .81

and Cruise mach .84 at higher altitude but its kinda slower for the 742

#14

I put the maximum altitude. Not one that they go to often. Deercrusher gave me the speeds for the CRJ family.

#15

Well, the man’s a CRJ pilot, so if he says so lol
