Hey folks,
I was trying to do an endurance flight, but just before I arrived in France, something happened to my engine ... I think :)
I climbed to 15.000ft, then once there went to -2 boost and 2000 rpm. Speed was around 200mph, fuel pump on, temperatures low. All of the sudden the engine stopped, with fire spewing out the exhausts. The prop was still wind-milling though. Cutting the fuel stopped the flames shouting out the exhaust.
Now my questions:
1) What happened and why?
2) I tried to restart the engine, but failed. Is it possible at all to do so in this condition?
Thanks in advance for the input!
