Title
Double Mamba performance AS.Ma.3 Gannet
Date
10 March 1953
Description

On the 2 January 1953 a note was issued referring to the necessity for revising the performance curves for AS Ma.6, AS Ma.3, and AS Ma.D3 (Gannet) engines. A copy of the curves for the AS Ma.3 (Gannet) engine is attached. This replaces the original set dated December 1951. In general, the power at altitude is increased relative to sea level and the specific fuel consumption throughout is higher in order to be consistent with AS Ma.D.1 (gannet) figures
