Isn't the Cessna Citation grossly overpowered?

It seems that one engine is more than enough to power it. I have to limit the power to 48% else I quickly go far into OVERSPEED territory.
Also the AP has to trim to 100% if the power is above 45% or more. I guess the real AP controls the power as well, something the simplified AP can’t do.

Isn’t there an power issue with this plane ?

Have you tried the CJ4 mod. CJ4 Community Mod by Working Title Released

Haven’t. Looks nice but norhing relaeted to power.

Yes the mod D-rated the engines. You no long overspeed the engines at full power.

Pretty sure the main mods to engine performance were done after the .2.0 release. The OP in the thread you posted only discusses release notes up to that point. But the current version .4.1 definitely adjusts engine performance.

Wait until you get to FL260 and above, it flies like a pregnant cow.

MS’s jet-engine planes have always been laughably overpowered - and I’m talking about over the entire franchise, not just FS2020.

Even the Piper Cub accelerates from 0 off the tarmac in a way that would rival most supercars.
