Thanks for letting me know. I thought this should never
happen because I always have automixture enabled and the
carburator was definitaly not frozen at this height, but I
had this engine off problem a number of times and it seems
you are just right.

Yeah, I remember that was the case with FS2000 as well, so I
thought it would be fixed in FS2002, but it seems it isn't.

Regards,
