The question I have concerns the effect of drop tanks in WITP. A number of drop tanks are defined in the Devices table and are used in a few aircraft. For example, the F-5A Lightning (Aircraft 167) uses two 150-Gallon drop tanks (Device 220). Does the stated endurance of 210 account for the drop tanks or is there some in-progam routine that decides when to mount them and adjusts endurance accordingly????

When I was checking aircraft distances to modify for my custom scenario I noticed that planes like the F6F Hellcat had an endurance which equated to roughly 880 miles so I was assuming that was without droptanks.
