    Let \(P^2\) be the real 2-dimensional projective space. This paper computes \(\Pi_5(P^2)\) and \(\Pi_i(\Sigma^3 P^2)\) for \(10\leq i\leq 13\), which are known to be 2-groups. Also a description of the generators is given. The paper uses several results from the literature about the homotopy fibre \(F_n\) of the pinching map \(\Sigma^{n-2} P^2\to S^n\) and the results of \textit{H. Toda}'s book [Composition methods in homotopy groups of spheres, Ann. Math. Stud. 49 (1962; Zbl 0101.40703)].
