"M. Tettnanger" wrote in message m... "Jim Baker" wrote... get down to about 20K lbs of fuel for a no flap landing which gave an approach/landing speed of 184 KIAS for a 210K lb. airplane. If I'm figuring this right, that's 225 mph groundspeed at the elevation of Ellsworth AFB. Holy smoke! Mark I once saw a B-52D land at Ellsworth AFB in zero feet. The nine crewmembers survived, the aircraft didn't. Their problem was lack of airspeed. Tex |
