S-92 Tip Speed
761 ft/sec @ 105% Nr. Tail is about 722.
The original Nr was 245.8, which was then increased during development by 5% to 258 ( present 105% ). Jack's note re reaching a free stream mach no of 1.0 at 165 @ -3C is therefore off a bit. Need to get to 191KCAS or so to get the tip free stream mach no up to 1.0.
BTW, UH-60 has been there and has data.
