Quick question for someone smarter than me.
how long, flying at 25K, 100%, does it take a P51 to travel 120miles?

One hopes one takes into account take off , time to climb, endurance costs, max engine heats, form ups and unexpected enemy encounters in any calculations of rendezvous......

Juice,
I was just wondering how much longer it would take the 352nd in P51's to get to the UNS planes.
