No penalty and no damages for excess flaps speed limit and gear ????

[B_Sturm]

I posed a similar question several months ago. According to Dan, the flap and gear use the same value and it is found in the gear sped
limit parameter in the aircraft config file. Here is Dan's response:

"No, flap speed is taken from aircraft.cfg, "gear damage speed" parameter.
IF it's not present FsP use default 250kts wich should do the job with a
great majority of commercial aircraft."

Here is what that portion of the aircraft config file looks like for the default Baron 58:
[contact_points]
//0 Class
//1 Longitudinal Position (feet)
//2 Lateral Position (feet)
//3 Vertical Position (feet)
//4 Impact Damage Threshold (Feet Per Minute)
//5 Brake Map (0=None, 1=Left, 2=Right)
//6 Wheel Radius (feet)
//7 Steer Angle (degrees)
//8 Static Compression (feet) (0 if rigid)
//9 Max/Static Compression Ratio
//10 Damping Ratio (0=Undamped, 1=Critically Damped)
//11 Extension Time (seconds)
//12 Retraction Time (seconds)
//13 Sound Type
//14 Airspeed limit for retraction (KIAS)
//15 Airspeed that gear gets damage at (KIAS)
//GEAR
point.0 = 1, 0.82, 0.00, -3.77, 1600, 0, 0.633, 40, 0.42, 4.0, 0.90, 3.0, 3.0, 0, 152, 180
point.1 = 1, -8.04, -4.79, -3.93, 1600, 1, 0.886, 0, 0.50, 2.5, 0.85, 4.1, 4.3, 2, 152, 200
point.2 = 1, -8.04, 4.79, -3.93, 1600, 2, 0.886, 0, 0.50, 2.5, 0.85, 4.3, 4.1, 3, 152, 200

The last value in each row is the gear speed limt. (180, 200, 200)
