Still some here try to put these disccusion into red or blue agenda whining lol. Poor anyside biased people.

The true is that actuall engine power modeling is wrong in many ways. Merlin engines in CLoD dont reach their real life specification. It should be corrected.

No one from "blue guys" dont even mention that 109 E in CLoD could fly all day in 5-minutes emergency power rating - 1.3 Ata at 2400 RPM without any engine problems but when it is clearly that Merling III or Merlin XII cant even reach their 5-minutes emergency rating without broken engine and some want it to be correct "blue guys" screem like hurted kids.

Im sure that time limit for engine power settings (from manual) should be reachable without any seriously problems in normal condition of flight and only in extremaly condition ( e.x very hot temperatures, cooling system damages, engine damages) could casue a problems.

Unfortunately in CLOD even in normal condition time limits for engine power settings are not possible to achive not mention that there are many bugs with designated engine power settings like e.x. SPitfire MK II with Merlin XII - nominal power should be +9lbs at 2850 RPM ( not +6 like now) and emergency should be +12 lbs at 3000 RPMs (not +9lbs like now)

I repeat correctly (historical) engine power settings for Merlin engines:

Merlin III with CSP at 87 Octan fuel:

Max take off - +6 1/4 at 3000 RPM
Climbing (1/2 hour limit) - +6 1/4 at 2600 RPM
Continous cruising- +4 1/2 at 2600 RPM
All-out level flight (5 minutes limit) - +6 1/4 at 3000 RPM

Merlin III at 100 Octan :

Max take off - +6 1/4 at 3000 RPM
Climbing (1/2 hour)- +6 1/4 at 2850 RPM ( below 20 000 ft)
-3000 RPM (above 20 000 ft)
All-out level flight ( 5 minutes)- +6 1/4 at 3000 RPM ( 5 minutes)
Emergency power (5 minutes)- +12 lbs at 3000 RPM ( 5 minutes)


Merlin XII at 100 Octan

Max take off - +12 at 3000 RPM
(emergency 3 or 5-minutes also)
Climbing (1/2 hour limit) - +9 at 2850 RPM
Continous cruising- +7 at 2650 RPM
All-out level flight (5 minutes limit)- +9 at 3000 RPM
