LOL... ...!

Actually, the word "Paranoid" doesn't even come close... ...!

After experiencing "Frozen Carburettors" and "Dead Engines" on my various twin-SU/Amal, etc, Carburettor'd vintage racing cars and Motor Bikes, I spend most of my Sim Flying hours keeping a wary eye on my Carburettor heat control knob......!

In real life, it's a life-saver...trust me...!

I always fiddle with my Knob, whenever altering power settings on my little Piston Props...

...(Applying "Carburettor Heat" helps, as well).....Trust me......!

F....I love my Carburettors... ...!

More Pilots have died due to NOT fiddling with their (Carb Heat) Knobs than is generally realised!
