There's a lot of point, if you want to go faster. As changing gear later will generally drop you into a part of the power curve which is higher than if you changed bang on 5100.

Plot out the thrust curves for each gear and you'll see what I mean.

@Killrob:Basically, to the right of the play button, you will see a button which says "CC". Click that button and it will bring up two options: Transcribe Audio and Translate Captions. I always use Transcribe Audio to see how stupid it is, but during Tutorial 1, it was spot-on!

Well, my bet surely would be on either PhillipM or T16! When it comes to building engines, they have super-human persistence and unmatched skillz :D
