Title: Yakovlev Yak-40, -42 and -42D
Post by: 1993matias on January 11, 2012, 02:38:27 pm
Hi!
I was lloking through data for the Yak-42 because I thought 120 passengers was too many (it isn't), and I've found several inconsistencies.
Yakovlev itself (http://www.yak.ru/ENG/PROD/current_42d.php) states the maximum range of 2790km (or 1506nm), but AM data states a range of 1372mi. The older version of the Yak-42D has a shorter range of 2150km (1161nm), different from the one stated in the game
For the Yak-42, the range should be 1530km (826nm) according to Yakovlev (http://www.yak.ru/ENG/FIRM/HISTMOD/yak-42.php), but in the game it is 1178mi.
The data for the Yak-40D is also incorrect, as Yakovlev itself (http://www.yak.ru/ENG/PROD/current_40.php) states that up to 36 seats is possible with a range of 1280km (691nm)*; the -40 is supposed to have a range of 1700km (918nm) (source) (http://www.yak.ru/ENG/FIRM/HISTMOD/yak-40.php)
The Yakovlev 42M seems not to have flown, so I suppose you don't want it in the system?
I'm sorry to ruin years of data research :P
*) I suppose the data on the webpage is for the -40D, as the historical page of the -40 says 32 passengers.
