Dear Forum Members,
Quick question for those familiar with operating the Europa with the 912ULS
engine:
What would you consider would be the highest altitude for normal cruising with
this engine. Read "normal" were the engine is not running overly rich and
causing
other issues such as fouled plugs?
Yesterday I did a fairly long cross-country around Florida (about 3.5 hours
total)
and on the return flight I was getting beat up by turbulence at 5,500 feet
(can the Europa be rough on turbulence or what??).
I understand the 912 is still happy at 5,500 but what about higher altitudes. I
put up with the turbulence. Rather silly since I could have just tried to go
up to 7,500 feet) but not knowing if the engine starts running too rich to be
happy I just put up with it.
Best Regards,
Chris
