I've crossed the Rockies on 85hp in a Cessna 120.

Under what conditions?

Let me hazard a guess here; the legally required conditions.

I suspect it wasn't limited to the legal minimum, however.

The legally required ones, e.g. possession of all requried paperwork
and manuals, route planning, preflight of aircraft, weather and
NOTAM check, etc.

How dense can you be?

Or in other words, everything you didn't do in your simulation of how
an idiot would conduct a flight.

Having required paperwork increases safety?

Orders of magnitude more than I am. And I see extreme examples that bring

Non sequitur.

You are grasping at straws in an attempt to back out of your bone

Isn't it amazing how Anthony, who a few years back tried to post as though
he was a pilot ("Last night when I flew from Phoenix to Las Vegas in my
Baron") is now asking questions about simple things like when to use boost
pumps. Something anyone who ever flew a Baron would know.
