I just downloaded 2.7 stable and of course wanted to do some cloud surfing in the C-101.  After flying around for a while, I got the distinct impression that this little plane seemed a little peppier than usual.

 

Fortunately, I had done a quick test in 2.5 a little while ago and had the following results for the C-101CC with default weather, MPR engaged, 25% fuel ... 365 kts at sea level.

 

In 2.7, same parameters, I can now get her up to 388 kts!

 

Still not a speed demon but I'm not going to complain about an extra 23 kts.  🙂

 

I didn't do any tests for the EB unfortunately but it seems faster too.

 

If intentional, it's a nice little surprise from AvioDev.

Maybe you were using a low atmospheric temperature and/or high pressure? That would affect engine performance, and aircraft performance in general.

EDIT: I see you wrote you were using default weather. Then I don't know what can be the reason for that difference.

Both in 2.5 and 2.7, the weather settings were 20 degrees C at 29.92 InHg.  No wind.  Aircraft configuration exactly the same.  Yet, I'm managing an extra 20 plus kts.  Something has changed.  Maybe the external forces are less in 2.7.
