yeah, I got to 21000' but the epileptic fits the aircraft was having between 10k and 21k was making me dizzy

Ok, just managed to get to 22000 (just!!), I didn't know how to push the throttle 'through the gate'.:rolleyes: before.

I was down to about 85 IAS by then.

By the time I got up there, the thing was shaking about unbelievably, although I couldn't decide whether it was supposed to be turbulence causing negative G and thus the misfires, if that what the 'stuttering' is.

Mind you, the motor was still running clean enough on the descent.

But lord above, it was hard work.:grin:

Don't know if I can even be bothered trying for another 10k.

Blimey, I'm knackered.:(

Should we be manually engaging high gear supercharging, or is it automatic?
