June 4, 20251 yr Probably works only with good addons, because default reciprocating engines still had the fs5 time "Leaning Bug" that has been plaguing them since the early 90s of last Century 🙂 It's a bug that makes leaning above around 3000' MSL have the opposite effect of RW leaning on Fuel Flow. It does not affect power though, which is actually coherent with the "theory of leaning", so it "works" the way it is supposed in as far as having more power available goes...

I remember in P3D or maybe FSX or sometime in the past, I was soooooo glad to have a turbocharged Cessna 182 to fly into SKBO. It was neat approaching Colombia from the northwest, from Panama, as I saw the mountains ahead of me. Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
