Piper Apache Performance

Good deal Mort... I don 't have to worry about you pestering me for a ride in Fat Albert... You can rest easy there. If I got maimed in the Apaches I used to operate, there was always worker's comp. No longer, so I'm not nearly so brave any more. G Now, the 150 hp has anemic single engine climb... Maintain the engines like it is a single and it will not be an issue... Cruise is 130 knot going cross country... I file IFR at 125 knots and have no problems meeting my times.. Fuel burn is 17.5 gallons cross country... Local flying burns less fuel because I pull the throttles back... As I recall, the 150 hp has anemic multi engine climb as well. -- Mortimer Schnerd, RN mschnerdatcarolina.rr.com
