a fuel proposal (simple)

I've heard stuff about the engine overheating when missused... Will that be put into effect at all?  I mean, from a realistic view it seems pretty sweet.  Just wondering if HTC is considering that idea?

pyro has stated that overheat at mil is not realistic.  I tend to believe him.  I think mil is 'as far as you can push it for a length of time (probably measured in hours) without causing engine failure'.

  There is no base of facts behind this.  Just makes sense to me.  If it was going to cause your plane to overheat in 10-15 minutes, I would have to consider that 'emergency' power.
