Yes ill probably see how it goes too. They have done a nice job on this but seem to have omiited things as far as engine performance goes as was noted on avsim. I am no pilot but was curious about a few things. But still am enjoying this imensely.

Being doing some readin to is 105 to 110 kts , single engine out is 140kts, makes for quick acceleration after TO just in case. As for engine issues after reading they seem to have them really close, its just the EGT i havent yet confirmed.

One off the close aircraft to compare from history would be the Martin B-26 Marauder , had a small wing thus making its landing speed s in around 100/115 knots and that was new to crews off the day ... no prototype as such , were as your MU , least they had a little more understanding.
