Not so much of a performance advantage was found, but we don't experience the 
performance
degradation you would see with the engine breathing the air warmed
by the radiators. 

G-ODTI has more than 170 hours now, and at the beginning of June will have 
completed
a full year and so all 4 seasons.  We have watched out for, and even 
deliberately
gone looking for carburettor icing, and found none.  For those who are
still not convinced, or have Aviation Authorities that insist on a carb heat
system, it wouldn't be difficult to add.  We intend to supply details of the
installa
tion in the not too distant future.
