Greetings fellas from a very hot and sultry S.W.France.

Flew my Sig Twister with a fully run-in GP42 this evening.

hi Robin,

As in the other thread, the "symptom" you are describing is a common one.  I have been told by those much more knowledgeable in all this stuff that while sitting still waiting on release, the engine is fighting to "go".  Once released it unloads in the air due to less load in level flight.
