The last bit of throttle is pretty dramatic. I noticed a big change in the difference in the last inch or so of MP when I went from a 2 blade to a 3 blade prop in my PA24-250. What prop do you have? I have the 2 blade "compact" prop. I'm not sure what "compact" means, other than it's not subject to the AD that has caused many Comanche owners to go to 3 blade props! -- Ben Jackson AD7GD http://www.ben.com/ |
