Talk:Britten Sheriff
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Projected performance of Sheriff
On the Sheriff page of the East Midlands Aeropark website, the estimated performance of the unfinished aircraft is listed. Among those specifications is 160 mph level speed, and 44,000 ft service ceiling. Both seem optimistic for an unturbocharged (apparently, from the engine specification listed) and non-retractable clunker of only 33 feet wingspan. Could somebody else have added those figures after Britten's death? Surely he wasn't that far off in his other calculations?? Raymondwinn (talk) 15:41, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
