By the way… when thinking of turbine aircraft I must always think of the wonderful King Air.
Is anyone making a study-level King Air 350?

This is actually a correct statement, it’s just not accounting for the fact that the turbocharger is not working at 100% capacity when you’re at sea level because you would overboost the engine. Once past the critical altitude, the turbo is working at 100% and can no longer compress enough air to maintain maximum MP, so the power begins to drop off, and the mixture gets too rich, as you described.
As a side note, on aircraft/engines with automatic wastegates, you put the throttles to full at any altitude and the system should automatically adjust the wastegates to maintain maximum MP until the critical altitude is reached.

Thanks for the good explaination. I am going to test the Turbo Arrow a little bit to see how the engine behaves. Have not flown it for a while because it´s too frustrating not being able to finish the interior texture overhaul because of texture file incompatibilities with normal- and bumpmaps and therefore always seeing this half-finished interior with this ugly driveshaft hump texture bug on the carpet.
But as far as I can remember the overboost light in the Arrow goes off in 7000 or 8000 feet altitude or so and leaning the mixture becomes necessary.
