is this a turbo charged engine also?


Is what a turbocharged engine also? Both the engine that John Smith is
talking about and the engine that I am talking about are turbocharged, as we
both stated in our posts.

I have taken off with a DA of 8800 ft, full rich and not had a problem in

my
T-arrow I use full rich on take off and landing, as my POH says to do.


Have you landed with a DA of 8800' with the mixture full rich? On my
airplane (and apparently John's), the engine would stop on rollout. That
said, maybe you have a superior fuel system on the Turbo Arrow, or perhaps
the engine is just somehow inherently more immune to overly rich mixtures.
