    Hello guys,

    first, thank you for the great mod, I'm really enjoying the plane (with the exception of sounds :-P )

    I have a question regarding engine modelling... First I have to mention, I'm not a pilot, and never flown a turboprop, and mostly know them from the YT and sim. But, I find it kind of strange, that while flying around in Europe, where it's winter currently, at FL 310, I can slam the throttle full forward without hitting any limitation on the engine (torque is over 100%, but I understand that's not necessarily hurtful to the engine and why 850 mode exists), ITT stays just under 800, NG is in the green arc... Is this true to life? I'd expect to hit ITT limit, but truth is, it's really cold these days, so I'm not sure if that would make a difference or not.

    Thank you and have a great day!

    More on this topic:
    The power lever on flight idle should give 69%ng, plus minus 2%. It gives something around 64%…
    This being said, I understand very well that true to life turboprop modelling is not easy !
