The non-turbo JF Arrow barely makes it far enough on the airpeed indicator for the needle to make it to the TAS compensated section. Manifold pressure starts to drop as soon as you're above sea level. I don't see how the Turbo would be the same speed. AMD 3950X | 64GB RAM | AMD 5700XT | CH Fighterstick / Pro Throttle / Pro Pedals

Manifold pressure starts to drop as soon as you're above sea level. I don't see how the Turbo would be the same speed. It would if you were higher. I assume the turbo charged version could go higher than the normally aspirated engine. Tht higher you are the more KTAS you'll get at tht same KIAS. Example 140 KIAS at 6000 vs 16000 ft is a decent difference of True airspeed.

I would also love the Cub (I flew A2A's Cub back in the day as well), but MSFS has a long way to go with taildraggers... lateral ground friction seems to be broken in the sim and it's impossible to groundloop aircraft. I know the real Cub is pretty docile, but I'm sure it doesn't take too kindly to sideloading the gear during a landing.
April 13, 20215 yr To the best of my knowledge Turbo Arrow IV's in the real world often cruise at 18,000 or right at their 20,000 foot service ceiling for a long distance flight. Up that high, their TAS is better than most piston single GA's. And you can't go wrong looking at that T-tail. I figure that site Bob linked to is showing a TAS cruise at altitude, there 177 KTAS is possible. Someone will come along and correct me if I'm wrong, but the A2A Comanche for P3D is not a turbocharged variant. Piper made quite a few turbocharged versions though. Maybe they'll model one for MSFS.

It’s possibly their best, but they don’t make any duds and whilst the comanche is my favorite too, some weeks i,prefer the v-tail, the cherokee, the spit or the p-51. Or maybe the new version of the cub, even the c182. A2a’s strength is their consistency.
