This is the OLC, not the world championships. There's no official observer of the pilot or even the type of aircraft. If I set my glider type to a T21 and fly an EB29 I can also cheat.

Why is this standard not applied to jets - often not detected even at full power, or even petrol engines? You can wrap a Nano in some foam and put it in a box and I bet it won't detect a rotary engine.

Perhaps Jeffrey has a suboptimal install, and he should fix that.

Perhaps the problem the OLC is trying to solve is installations that appear to
show full power properly, but can not detect low power operation, as appears to be
case in Jeff's Silent.
