    Thanks Peter,
    That's what I also found for this plane, but I wasn't sure.
    For others, it will be more difficult!

    Philippe, USC has the Vickers Vimy: Great Britain 18 Q4 -18 Q4 ,K maneuver deck, A/A shooting front/reqr, 19 damage, 6 ceiling, 7 climb rate.

    I'd say some of the USC stats for the Vimy are a bit optimistic, it was barely faster than the HP O/400 (157kph?) with a lower service ceiling. (K deck covers speeds 161-180kph) With the base size for the big 'uns it would be likely still be in the XB/XC bracket. I'd have put the guns B/B as standard (optional A/A); matched the damage to the O series at around 30 with lower max alt and similar climb rate.

    From your De Haviland DH.10 "Amiens" stats: Maneuver K (200 km/h); Armement A/A; Damage 18; Ceiling 13 (5800 m.); Climb rate 2 (11 min. to 3000 m.)
    - You'd have to decide on the base size (normal or medium) but with a max speed of +200kph that is an A deck - the very fast speed band - good luck catching that !!

    From your Blackburn T.B. stats: Maneuver XD (138 km/h); Armament None; Damage 13; Ceiling 5; Climb rate 5
    - You'd have to check on the base size but at the max speed of 138kph, that's the slow speed bracket, so with a normal base a Y deck would fit the bill.

    You'll likely need more research into base sizes and speeds, I expect someone on the USC could chip in on that.?
