Tiger Moth operating limits & checklist?
 

I´m looking for information about this aircraft for training purposes, but I have not found any tecnical info about it...

Anyone have any information about it?

Help much appreciated

I will be posting an updated Aircraft Operations Checklists within the next week that will include the Tiger Moth as well as info on all flyable models in the game.

Thank´s Cheesehawk for the link. I´ll give it a look

WOW!! great news GFlea!!! Im waiting for this release!...
I´ll PM you for the excel´s...

Going from memory, i think your just have to make sure you don't exceed 1800-1900 RPM.

It has a fixed pitch propeller (no pitch control) which makes it necessary to control the RPM by throttle inputs, as such it doesn't have a manifold pressure/boost gauge because keeping the RPM within limits also keeps the boost within the correct range (i don't think it's even supercharged but i might be mistaken).

Also, you need to manually lean your mixture as you climb but if you throttle back the throttle lever will "pull" the mixture lever back into the rich position. This is done to prevent fuel starvation and engine cut-out during abrupt reductions of throttle (and it's why the mixture is reversed on all the other RAF aircraft as well, making sure the pilots don't have to change habits they learned in the trainer), but it also means you'll have to manually re-lean the mixture when you increase the throttle again.

EDIT: Just checked the link above and i was wrong, but close enough...2100 RPM max continuous, 1850 RPM for cruise.

Needless to say i'm just itching to sea Flea's updated checklists, if he's got them for all flyables as he says then it will cover the documentation gap about the Italian aircraft and we might see more of them being used. Flea mate, feel free to copy over the Blenheim limits from that thread in the gameplay section ;)

Oh, yeah, well, uhhh... I keep forgetting that there are Italian planes in this sim. I've tried to find original documents for the Italian planes with no luck. I have Operational Limits (Engine and Airframe) for all RAF and Luftwaffe flyables (plus Bf 108 and Anson) and detailed checklists for all RAF flyables. Sorry for the false advertising. Should be done by this weekend.
