I've been looking for a pilot's operating handbook but i've been unable to find a free version of one. I'll check and see if Flea's datasheets on the simHQ thread contain any information for the Blenheim's operating limits.

That being said, if you get sputtering engines at high altitude try giving it some carb heat.

Also, if you get engine damage during takeoff or when running high boost make sure you really are running rich mixture. It's reversed like in the Hurri and Spit, full rich is with the levers fully back.

I do know how it works more or less but i still damage the engines from time to time, it's a very challenging aircraft with a lot of stuff to keep in mind. The fact that there's no carb temp indicator further complicates things, because you have to more or less guess when and how carb heat to apply.
