4.11 overheat and engine damage test results

[WhistlinggDeath]

Got a phone interview set up for Friday with Glenn Holcomb. Went to school in Clay County, West Virginia. Entered Army Air Corps thru examination process for talented high school graduates. Attended OCS in Texas and flew B-17 bombers until late 1943. Retrained and started flying the P51 variants during the last half of 1944 and 45. Ended the war a captain, then got a college degree and flew for Delta Airlines until mandatory retirement age of 60, and currently lives just outside Medford, Oregon. His daughter tells me he is of sound mind and still golfs (although, slowly) at age 89.

Will post the interview here and the audio track at Mediafire when I finish.

You should talk to bongodriver he's an experienced interviewer - I also think most of us would love to hear more from this vet.
A video would rock.

I did. But I could not reproduce it in my game, not even once.

I don't think it is wise to compare an expensive and complicated aircraft engine system to a bargain light weapon.

1) Wait, so if you can't reproduce what's in the track I gave you, who's fault is that? Our games are the same, no? 4.11 stock, no?

Ok, why don't you give me your track. Maybe we can analyze it and see what you could be doing differently.

2) The mechanism is different, but the philosophy is the same: Low tolerances, simplicity in manufacture and maintenance, reliability. Don't pick nits.

I highly doubt your ntrk was recorded in 4.10m because none of squadmates could reproduce it. Check your game instead.
