Hey Guys thanks for all the input. Firstly, I have the O200 installed on a Fisher Celebrity experimental biplane. I leved before in San Pedro Sula Honduras so the response from Hernan in La Ceiba was interesting there, DA went to about 3,000 feet at very high 38 degrees close to midday. There are some videos to check out if you want on you tube. Believe it is "Fisher Celebrity biplane Flying in San Pedro Sula. I have now been sent to Bogot Colombia, South America. So, even though here I have available about 6,000 feet of runway I am wondering about the performance issue. I thought about a turbo, but the exhaust stacks exit out of the cowl. I would have to pipe them together add a waste gate (even a manually controlled one seem complicated) Then, pipe back to the carb (or throttle body injector) As far as a more powerful IO-240 that would be ideal I guess, but then $$ becomes an issue. I do not believe there are many used ones up for sale. I will test fly with the O200 (from a sea level town) and climb up to see if I can reach the certified ceiling of 12,750 by leaning for best power over 5k. Then I will test fly out of Bogot and see how taxi tests go E.
