I believe that this might be the appropriate place to post about an aviation site that heavily focuses on WW2 aircraft and performance characteristics:

Greg's Airplanes and Automobiles

This is just one of the ever expanding series:

Messerschmitt Me 262 and P-80 Thrust, Drag, and Horsepower

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv83yBebiIU

Many of the videos on that site delves into pilot's level mathematics & aerodynamics, but explained in a manner not overly difficult to understand.

One of the academic sources that is referred to in this video is:

AERODYNAMICS FOR NAVAL
AVIATORS
BY
H. H. HURT, JR.
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA


https://www.faa.gov/regulations_policie ... 80t-80.pdf

The maths and aerodynamics in the Naval Aviators reference IS more involved than what is in the video.

Thanks to "The Ibis" for this thread.

I have a great liking for his posts, and we had a good rapport at the "other" military history forum @ACG.

He was a quality moderator there, and a good friend.
