Hmm !
just done some quick testing aimed and engine destruction. Ignored Overheat message. Just went balls to the wall to maintain Vmax for as long as possible. Note Overheat message does NOT mean damage imminent ... its just a heads up to keep an eye on things. TA152H Sea Level Normandy Map, Midday, Rad Full open Max ATA, Max RPM, MW50 Overheat message appeared at 1min 33 secs elapsed time No engine damage noticeable until 5min 58secs elapsed ... feint grey smoke At 8min 38 seconds significant damage ... RPM reductions in the order of 100RPM Progressive performance deterioration until at 10min 19secs insufficient power to maintain level flight. P51D Sea Level Normandy Map Midday,Rad Full Open, 67"MAP (WEP) 3000RPM, Overheat message illuminated at 2min 4 seconds elapsed Slight performance degradation (loss of 10Kmh IAS) after 5min 4 seconds elapsed Oil splatter at 9 min 10 seconds elapsed You will get slightly different results from test to test as a randomness factor is also at work. EDIT: since some card read. Start was at Sea level or the closest QMB would give i.e. 100metres. Last edited by IvanK; 01-25-2012 at 03:54 AM. |
