Oil temp. Whatever settings people tell you to fly at, fly at less, apart from airspeed. Whether it be RPM or boost. Most people in a game fly at max poss everything all the time. Total rubbish.

What is the oil temp at which your engine blows? Find out. Run your mouse over the oil temp gauge and wait for it. Try it at different rpms. Try it at different boost settings. Just fly. Offline until you find out. Then you'll know.

Everything is there for you to find this out for yourself. Go to it.

Edit: 97 degrees. If memory serves correctly........
