No, I'm also still looking for those info. See also my post from today, you can use the treshold speed as V2 also (according to my expierience). Initial climb is V2+10-20, second segment climb speed after clean up is the mentioned climb speed.

fuel consumption-no idea so far

Any idea for t/o thrust settings?

Glad you like it, I found it very useful too.

Might want to look at my buglist for the post 1.1 things to make this nice bird even better, if you like.

No really, absolutely awesome documents. This should go straight into the CS Manual. Some are already included (approach charts ) but the fuel planning ones are really invaluable and sorely lacking in the manuals. Going to have them printed out and bound for quick in-flight reference.

Reference gold mine right there fellas !

Cheers

I agree with you 100% Nico!

They really are a great find with a wealth of info. "The PDF files contained in this zip are taken from a real world 707 operations/training manual." I have created a reference file that shows up in the Kneeboard so I can quickly access information. Some information was over my head though.
