Your comments would indicate this to be the case; most people tend to blindly believe that high compression numbers are good, lower compression numbers are bad, and take a fairly generic view toward what compression really is.
You are committed to being anal aren't you??
You will find that I am talking about relative compressions, not high verses low.
But then again it is probably not something a boggie pilot would pick up anyway.
Personally I just make sure the compression is above 55 and not leaking from any place that it should not be, thats for lycoming and continental opposed engines, radial engines are your forte - so will not comment.
