A2A Comanche engine listed as IO-540-C?

SimBrief Aircraft Profiles

The IO-540-C seems to be a fuel-injected engine, whereas the A2A PA-24 manual shows the engine as O-540-A, and carbureted.

Any ideas why the SimBrief version is the IO-540-C? Does it matter?

Thanks!

Simbrief doesn’t have an “A2A Comanche” profile. It has a “Piper PA-24 Comanche” profile for a model with an IO-540-C, presumably because that’s the variant for which they were able to find a POH with the required data.

A fuel factor might be required to match the carbureted engine variant’s fuel burn more accurately; A2A should be able to tell you if it is.

Thanks-

Someone apparently made one at one point, but:

So I’ll look into tightening up the numbers.
