GregP

Very interesting discussion here and it occurred to me that maybe some of the difference in opinion on how it should operate comes down to the difference between actual power output and RPM? Is it possible that our simulated plane shows the RPM ramping up relatively quickly and in accordance with what Greg has observed, but actual power output lags a bit behind as some of the testimonial comments above seemed to indicate, due to not enough ram air pressure until reaching higher air speeds? I guess this could be sort of tested by advancing the throttle quickly and seeing how fast the simulated one accelerates, but it would be admittedly difficult to quantify what would constitute 'fast or slow enough' acceleration.
