    @Pauciloquent best result was 760 in plain flight, and 760 also climbing 90 degree.

    @Pauciloquent No way to achieve 760+ with new props, neither heavvy modded, like 20.000 cv each. At 760 there is a sort of stone wall, i can suppose intentionally software coded

    @Baldovino how is the mach 1 prop plane (new prop and non XML) going? I belive you made one that went over 750 someting... but did you ever make one that past 760? Or 761.1....

    @Pauciloquent I asked directly to Andrew Garrison, at first time he do not allowed them, then posted that he changed his mind, and for this time only he allowed the old props. So I changed my entry, but belive me, there are more problems, the only 100% reliable plane was with new props and slowest by a lot (1.24). This one is much faster, ok... but it's far from 100% success.

    I guess it's down to the old props in this Tournament, planes like mine don't stand a chance...
