With the introduction of the F4U-1D, there is a table fixed on the left side of the aircraft showing the aircraft's own limits. To avoid having to look to the side—and sometimes struggling to read what it says—I’ve created version 1.0 of that table.
This is an operational limits table ("DO NOT EXCEED") for the F4U-1D Corsair fighter, typically mounted inside the aircraft cockpit. It displays the maximum allowed parameters for safe engine operation under different flight conditions. Below is the detailed description:
Operational Limits Table – F4U-1D "DO NOT EXCEED"
Columns:
OPER. COND. (Operating Condition) – Type of engine power setting.
SUPERCHARGE CONTROL – Supercharger setting (low or high gear).
R.P.M. – Engine revolutions per minute.
MIN. ALT. – Minimum altitude required to reach the specified pressures.
MAN. PRESS. – Manifold pressure in inches of mercury.
MIXTURE – Fuel/air mixture and maximum cylinder head temperature (CYL TEMP).
