Try going a little higher, like to Pike's Peak, 14,110. You will find
a noticeable drop off in power.

But the engine will still be automatically optimized for peak power,
whereas an aircraft engine will not. I think that's the point.

Also, human beings tend to start losing power at 14,000 feet, too.


Only if the fuel-air sensor was designed to handle that altitude.
Estimating from the performance I experienced, the limit seemed to be
somewhere between 11,000 and 12,000 feet.
