Hello all!
I've tried out the Tiger Moth three times, one of them a long flight from Caen to Shoreham AF (I believe)
It's a wonderful aircraft and I'm especially fond of a beautiful blue paint job on it but I digress.
I wonder why the oil pressure settles at 28 lb/sq.inch instead of around 35-40 as mentioned on the little placard at the gauge?
I should mention that I've only been as high as 4000ft with her and I can imagine that it has a better performance at a slightly higher altitude
but surely it would've been at minimum at least? Well, am I missing something you think?
Thanks!
