 |
|
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.

Galin, congratulations! Your airplane is a great example of what a KIS TR4 can be: a great and solid family Cruiser!
Hope mine will be so nice as yours....
