Oddly enuff, I just happen to have the said notes for the Hudson V to hand!


Takeoff: @18,500lb, "the aircraft can be eased off the ground at 60 knots IAS, but in practice it has been found advisable to wait until a speed of approximately 65 knots has been attained."

Overload, use 15% flap and 70-75kts.

Climb at 100 kts, cruise climb at 118kts


Landing: 70% flap at 75kts, also with engine-out.


Hope that helps.

G'day
