"Jay Honeck" wrote \\ Perhaps you have a cruise prop on both aircraft, Ben? You shouldn't be exceeding red line simply by going to full throttle in level flight, *unless* your prop has been pitched differently than stock. That would be a climb prop, wouldn't it? I thought a cruise prop had more pitch to keep from overspeeding during level cruise, and a climb prop had less pitch (or diameter) to let the engine spin up to maximum RPM's (and HP) during the normally slower RPM, higher load climbs. -- Jim in NC
