• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

If I had to venture a guess, I would say it's a graph showing Speed/ Fuel Consumption ratios. I would think Wind Drift and other calculations
would have been done with an E6-B or similar instrument.

Just a guess... :wiggle:

I do not know exactly, but I think the fuel at anything.But the speed, in my opinion, is already quite close.Fuel consumption on a more difficult schedule determined they nonlinear.For example, here for the B-29:

From the photo, I would say the two illustrations match pretty closely! In your Photo, the X axis of the graph calls out Altitude, the Y axis, Time to Climb. Looking at the Notations in the upper right of the Photo, it could be a Climb Power profile, suggesting best MP/RPM settings for a given weight, OAT and Fuel Consumption.

:biggrin-new:
 
ViperPilot2, thanks for your option.
What do you think about this chart?
