Wow - thrilling!

Do you taxi with auto lean mixture for preventing spark plug fouling?

Regards,
Zacke

Hello!

Thanks Zacke!

Yes I taxi with auto lean mixture to prevent fouling, but also because it's a lot easier to ajust the power with the throttle this way when taxiing, if you don't lean the mixture, you can easily find yourself taxiing too fast without noticing and break something...

RIP hydraulic pump. You had the pump running the entire time (audible high pitch noise). You should only operate ir when retracting/extending gear and flaps.

oh ok, I had it on automatic, didn't knew I needed to do something about it since there is an "automatic hydraulic" mode...

Very nice show. Thanks for uploading.

I'm learning the P-40 still (guess that statement will remain true to a long time) and I was paying attention to the button on the joystick as the gear rose.
The comments later explained so fair enough.
Look like your are having fun. The Orbx scenery looks amazing also.

Go Handy!

Jack
