I suspect gear and flaps down speed of a F15 to be around 110 or 120
knots. I
wonder if with the thrust to weight ratio if he could nose up and power up
and
hold a much lower grd speed without altitude gain? Any former F15 pilots
out
there have the answer?
I have seen FA-18's "hang it on the prop" before; I'm sure F-15 pilots are
"almost" as good! g
