Burning engines

[b9]

Brilliant 1946. What a simulation....

Is it me or... I keep burning up my engines on the He 162 and Me 262. I usually give the engine a good burn on take off to cruising height/speed, ease off, then increase speed to close with my target. At this point a nice little message appears "engine on fire" and I think to myself, "I didn't do it, so who did?"

Is it me?

Be carefull to adjust throttle slowly on any jet.
Keep an eye on your RPM indicator(s) to see if the engine is keeping up. If it does not, adjust throttle slower.
Also don't throttle back and then up again. You run a big chance of blowing up the engine.
It takes a while but you'll develop a feel for it.
If you change throttle too fast an engine fire will result.
On takeoff no more than 85% throttle (8000 RPM) is needed. Taxi using 6000 RPM
