Kawanishi Type 97 (H6K) "Mavis" speed checked out good

I did some ingame testing of the H6K and it's speed came out right. Sorry El, I didn't mean to lead you astray and certainly didn't expect you to post this. My fault.

The speed of the H6K is good. I set the H6K at 1000m and 185kts (185/60= 3.08nm per minute). Once in the game I layed out a 3.1 nm circle around my boat. The plane took exactly 1 minute to cover the distance.

This is the only plane I tested.

Having said that, this is maximum speed. Do the planes in the game have the ability to cruise at thier maximum speed for thier maximum range?

More testing is in order. I guess lay out a max range waypoint at max speed and see if it'll make it? Also, payload effects range.

If the speed is right (max) then we could chenge the max value to the cruising speed I guess.
