Hello Aleatorylamp,
Yes, the Messerschmitt 262 is a possibility. I just have so many other projects that are ALMOST done that I feel that I should complete them first. Many have been stuck for years. I figure that if I complete the gauges for the Lightning and Mitchell, then I will actually have learned something which is my main goal these days. There are also t least three others that are ready for release but for some tedious texturing tasks....
Regarding weight of fuel, just remember: This is YOUR aeroplane. It isn't mine. I do what I want. You use what parameters you believe to be correct. The sources I found were done pretty quickly and I barely skimmed over the report you are quoting from.
The Russian video actually gives much different numbers than the others, so with all the conflicting sources, you get to decide which is correct. It has to be whatever you are satisfied with.
If this were my project, I would be using a notes / data document. You know the format I typically use. I obviously have not done that here. What do you notes say? Which sources are in agreement and which are in conflict? Can you deduce something from other weight data such as basic and take-off weights?
In some areas of this project, I believe I can give some pretty good advice such as in AF99 problem solving or in how to tune Flight Models, but what to include in the projects is you decision.
- Ivan.
