I once got engine silence at extreme climb angle like Frank did. It was also with an extreme climb prop, flying solo and it was also in winter with very cold air (hence higher power than usual). There was plenty of fuel in the tanks and, of course, the nose tank was full.
The nose up angle was the highest I've ever seen in a Coupe. Like Frank, the engine power came back instantly when the nose dropped. No sweat unless you're trying to clear trees after a too-short takeoff run. Ed
