Great story Jack!! I have the Angel Flight paperwork that I am going to
fill out. Did you find it easy to get into the Angel Flight system? Any
requirements I need to know about?


As Dan and Gary said, things can differ region to region and the best
bet is to call them. For our region, their website had most of the
information. The hardest thing I had to do was coordinate schedules
with a mission orientation pilot. It took a month or so before we could
hookup but the orientation process is a piece of cake.


What kind of speed and fuel flow does the Arrow get @ 24/24? Do you run
LOP?

According to Mr. Garmin, TAS was 137-138 kts. Running 50 ROP.
Indicated fuel flow was right at 11 gph, close to the 11.4 gph based on
gallons used/hobbs time. I've wondered just how accurate the factory
installed fuel flow gage was. I like the 8-ish GPH numbers when running
at 21/24. The 24/24 numbers from yesterday were at 5000 ft MSL and an
OAT of 18c.
