Over-revving the FW 190 D9 1945

[RPS69]

Read the technical part of the thread Alpha posted unto me.

It actually cools cylinders heads, not only the charge.
It is more a problem of high pressure than overheat alone.

People happen to forget that german pilots used MW50 to climb away from the likes of Yaks, Las and Spits. They were not forced to dive away from them when at high altitude. P47 and late war american planes were anoter thing.
