I'm curious at what RPM people cruise the C-150s at, and what real world speed this generates?
I've been told the engine likes full throttle over part throttle, but this seems counter-intuitive to me.


Anywhere from 2500 to full throttle. The back of your owners manual gives
you the RPM vs altitude information. Use it and you'll be fine, and meet
book values.
