Hi Faster stronger

May be we can add this points also
* Gas turbine engines are most efficient when their compressors are operating at high RPM i.e 90-95%
*The high RPM achieves the best specific fuel consumption.
*At high altitude the cruise airframe drag is minimum.
*The TAS is also higher for a constant IAS.
