This is slow for an Archer, but 10,000 feet means nothing without knowing density altitude and RPM. A typical Archer should do about 150mph (130kts) wide open throttle at 8000ft DA. Btw, how do you guys get that high with a non-aspirated and not-so-powerful engine? Do you do it even with full load? (it seems that all Americans fly Archers at about 10k ft...  I'm interetested in what kind of airspeed/fpm you use and how do you lean in climb? I don't usually go higher than 7000-8000 ft (with full load) and that is difficult enough in my opinion I try to maintain at least 300fpm allthe way, with airspeed 80kts and leaning gradually after 5000ft.
