Operating Temperature

Post by Chunk »

Good morning Mathias,

I was flying in Iceland over the weekend, and was climbing up to 4k meters. As I was climbing, the manifold pressure kept dropping, and when I got to 3.5k meters, I had almost zero power. So I descended back to 1k meters, and power gradually came back. I know it was extremely cold that day, so does that explain the loss of power, or could it be something else?

Thanks,

Ron

We see that at times when using some third party weather engines.
Workaround is to switch on carburetor heat (yeah, I know...).
Just look up the keyboard command in your FSX settings.
