[edit] Obvious Error in Performance Data

Some of the performance data are obviously wrong. Especially egregious is the rate of climb (5000 meters per minute). Even with the most powerful engines listed in the article (the BMW of 960 hp), assuming 2 engines with 95% installed efficiency and 75% propeller efficiency and no drag from the rest of the airframe, the rate of climb is only 840 meters (2762 feet) per minute.Raymondwinn (talk) 20:56, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
