Can one of you military gentlemen help Draper out here.
I read on another thread that the late
Wing Commander Beamont, flew the TSR2 at mach 1.2 at low level.
There's a stroppy colonist arguing that their f104 could go faster than that at low level.
What speed exactly is mach 1.2 at 100 feet in english money, ie mph?.
I thought something like the f104 would shake itself to pieces doing that speed at that height, I mean, it was a bit girly looking.
