Default Flying the Warrior X-Country

It's to their advantage to have you flying more hours, burning less fuel,
and going easier on the engine. Follow the money. Nothing wrong with using
2400 rpm or so, especially if it gets you there quicker and saves you money.

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if there are reasons other than fuel conservation
for flying a warrior slower cross country? Our club advises the pilots
to fly cross-country at or below 2300 RPM. Is there a good reason not
to fly at 2400 or 2450 RPM? Thanks for any help you can give. (I'm
relatively new pilot who is learning quickly!)
