PERFORMANCE CHARTS
The following pages include the performance charts as they are provided for the German Robin DR400 we
used as the base for the simulated aircraft. The charts are in German but should be usable if you do not read
that language. Or as the developer told me, “it’s not like the real aircraft cares a lot about these charts.”
Do not get too focussed on performance charts, the DR400 will tell you what it can do, just fly it and listen to
what it tells you.
