They are specific points on the power required and thrust required curves. The cruise speeds points of the thrust required and power required curves are fixed by the design and completely independent of engine settings.
Do you need me to talk you through how to determine them?
It is very easy to proved I am not wrong if you understand how the physics works.

No, thank you, that is not necessary at all. I already know you're completely wrong with your 'combat speed default trim setting' statement, no matter how hard you now try to prove that you were actually right.
As for the actual question (sorry I thought it was a rhetorical one) I don't know how exactly to calculate cruise speed for an aircraft, and I don't need it in order to see that you wrote 'combat speed' instead of 'cruise speed'. Now you will probably reply with another graph to prove that it's the same thing. Maybe you're even right, but essentially, you wrote nonsense, hence my reply. Consider my knowledge as limited if you wish, but then if I even can see that you're wrong and that you're bending facts to fit your bizarre theories (maintain rpm by changing it constantly, RAM effect, Merlin XX etc...), that says something about your activity here, not mine.
I am not too sure anymore about what are you trying to achieve on this game's forums, perhaps you enjoy the arguing for the sake of arguing, perhaps you enjoy the advantage you think you're having with your theoretical knowledge. I actually enjoy some of your technical posts and I have no problem to understand what you were saying, but when you're wrong you're wrong. And for some reason you never admit it, you just go on and on and every thread ends up to be about Crumpp vs. the 'sane world' rather than about the original topic. I fond that a bit frustrating to be honest.
Let me ask you a question you also omitted before - how exactly would a 400kph sustained turn in a Bf 109E be useful in actual turnfight vs. a Spitfire Mk.I?
