    When the South Atlantic map came out I setup a flight from the mainland to Mount Pleasant and back with bombs to attack the runway. That was all manageable, and was about as long as I would want to fly anyway!

    The sheet is a good tool, thanks for sharing.

      Yeah, you just have to be conservative with AB and keep up high.

      The values in the sheet are very generous in terms of security margins etc. it’s usually no problem to stretch the loiter time a bit.
