Subject: Re: performance The 640 is a great instrument platform. I fly IFR a lot, and have about 30 hours in IMC in my 640. The back seat is tight for 2 adults. 1 adult or 2 kids can fly comfortably in the back. I wouldn't bother with a constant speed prop. Keep it simple with a 180 and fixed pitch prop. I flight plan for 125kts between 65-70% power. Flying at 75% power will gain a few knots, but increase fuel burn and noise considerably. You can push it to 132 kts if the moon is in the right phase and the stars are aligned correctly :). Steve Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=216190#216190
