Where on earth did you get a performance chart for a NA engine to FL240 ? Mine stops at FL120 and its an IO 550!
In 2015 I did Sweden (FL210 for a bit) and Slovenia-Croatia-Greece-Corsica (also FL210 for a bit) back to back.
If the theory is correct, then it must take a few flights to clear it after a high altitude one. The Slovenia-Croatia flight was done low level, so obviously more than that is needed.
Yes, and the flight data I posted shows that one flight didn’t do it. It needed two, by the looks of it…
None of this is a proof, but it does look credible.

From the Lyco engine operating manual.
Cont is short changing people again.

I did not get that. What does it mean?
Cont = Continental Engines (the company)
Short change =
1. to give less than correct change to
2. to treat unfairly or dishonestly, especially by giving less than is deserved or expected
As used in (2) its an idiomatic expression

Not at all – you don’t have the relevant Operating Manual for your Conti ?
What I got is the only thing they gave with the STC. Do you have the operating manual?
It should be on the mfg’s website.
