engine seizing on carrier landing

[Charley]

I tried the carrier landing training mission a month or so ago & thought I would repeat it because I'm trying to practice my landings. This time, since the last update, I'm wondering if the training instructions need to be updated too. They say to close the cowl flaps & there is no mention of  the oil cooler flap, which is closed. A few times doing this training mission my engine quickly seizes up before I can get to the carrier. Are these settings correct for a carrier landing?

Oil cooler closed sounds very suspicious.

Either way, check your temps. You cannot keep the coolers closed if you eventually overheat your engine.

Duplicate thread.  Lots of discussion already.  Have a quick look at the long discussions in the other threads.  In short, no.  Things have changed since the training missions were made.  You need cowl and oil flaps open otherwise you’ll overheat.

Thanks,  I saw that the engine management has  already been  discussed. I guess I just just wanted to point out that these training instructions from the developer are very incorrect.

They were probably made before the latest features were implemented. @Reflected?

The tutorials don’t follow the current state of the module.  They follow real world instructions. BTW closing your oil coolers is probably a bad idea.
