If You think the Crapinson 22 runs out of puff fast, try flying an H269 or a Franklin engined 47D
I always thought that the R22 (O-360, 131hp) has more power problems than the 269 (HIO-360, 190hp). Ok, the 269 has some 100kg more empty weight and some 300kg more MTOW, but under "normal" german summer conditions (about ISA+20), I´ve never experienced real problems in the 269, not even with me having 90kg and my TRE having some 120kg.
