Not true, if the engine is cooled with adequite airflow. And possibly a better cooling system. I like flying a friend's Europa. It is turboccharged (i.e. turbo supercharged, not turbo normalized), and has thermostatically controlled liquid cooling, and automatic turbo control. Additionally, the constant speed prop is set by putting the selector in 'Take off', 'Climb', 'Cruise' (you can also switch it into a simple variable pitch prop, or make it constantly variable, or feather it). Cruise is simply a matter of putting the prop switch into the 'Cruise' detent and setting the MP at your desired power setting. Mixture control is automatic, too. That's the way to fly. I've never seen that engine run particularly hot. -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee" |
