r your take off clearance=2C then it will boil over. Moreover=2C as soon as
CHT reaches 110=B0C=2C you must either shut down the engine or take off qu
ickly. If you wait a few more minutes and let the CHT reach 115=B0C=2C then
the only choice is to take off immediately. Then the CHT will decrease ins
tantly. If you shut down at this point=2C then the heat transferred from th
e hot engine to the coolant will make it to exceed its boiling point and yo
u are facing a big mess.

allow the CHT to slightly exceed 120=B0C=2C for example during a full powe

.

idering the redline is 110=B0C on the ground and 120=B0C in flight is good
enough. This is especially true on the Europa where cooling is very good in
flight but very marginal on the ground.

It is possible that I may be transferred to the US. Does anyone know how
to register a foreign built Europa in the US?
thanks Will
