Subject: | WOT @ 7,500ft DA test results |
FWIW: On yesterday's flight from KMKS to KSGJ I was IFR at 6,000ft but
since the DA was at 7,480ft I decided to do a Wide Open Throttle
(WOT) test. I pushed the throttle all the way in, leaned the engine to
peak and the propeller (CATTO FP) settled down to 2,680RPM's. My SkyView
showed the engine was at 75% power, burning 12.1GPH and the speed
indication flickered between 149 and 150Kts TAS.
I am very pleased with the performance although I would like to get the
propeller re-pitched and get the full 2,700RPM's. But for now I will enjoy
the airplane as it is.
