If the in-game aircraft's at 7116lb, sounds like you made the right decision to me. 
Don't mind checking this stuff at all, FMs are such a cause for controversy in this game, it's better if the process is as transparent as possible and people can get all of their objections out in the open and see why certain data was used, etc., etc. Obviously it helps if they make a specific objection supported by some kind of evidence unlike those in the previous thread. :roll: Presumably the latter of the two tests was performed with the rear fuselage tank filled or something. The earlier test was already at just below maximum fuel capacity for the two front tanks (84 out of 85 gallons). Interesting, I wonder what the die-hard Luftwhiners will make of this. 
So far we've had a Bf-109K4 with a substantially overestimated climb-rate and a Spit IX running at 25lbs being undermodelled in all areas.
