I gave you the weights and the thrust. You can convert to weight on earth to mass quite easily.

4.7m lbs thrust divided by 3.1 m lbs rocket = 1.51 Thrust/Weight ratio for FH 7.8m lbs thrust divided by 5 m lbs rocket = 1.56 T/W ratio for Saturn V Pretty similar... Should look about the same. 1.7m lbs thrust / 1.2 m lbs rocket = 1.41 T/W ratio for Falcon 9 currently flying If anything, FH should have a little more "giddy-up-go" than the current Falcon 9... 6.78m lbs thrust / 4.47 m lbs rocket = 1.51 T/W for shuttle Same as Falcon Heavy, so the liftoff should be about the same.

Apollo Saturn V was actually 7.6 / 6.2 m lbs at liftoff for a 1.22 T/W ratio.

It's just being lazy and using wiki... At least it got more people to post on this thread than all the other threads combined in a week's time.

True... I almost blamed wiki myself since I cheated and looked the other stuff up on there as well, but I saw I quoted you and figured I'd blame you instead... Later! OL J R
