Bit late picking this up, John, but
I was showing service pilots of the day the alpha and beta margins that they could relax inside
- and very well you did it too. I'm sure you saved many of us a few missed heartbeats on the jet. Thank you.
As you say, amazing engine margins on the Sukhoi

they appreciate its large payload (12 weapon stations) and tremendous range and endurance (10 hrs with a single refuel).
- phenomenal!
