Re: Speeds at Altitude
What is your pressurization status at this sub-28" MAP and FL250....cabin altitude and PSI differential?

I've noticed that my IAS is about the same 188-192 regardless of MAP power setting (30" to 36", 2500 RPM).  Obviously, fuel flow is different.

And you are LOP with 15.3 gph, which makes the power output here even lower than ROP operations, here at something ~50%.

And what are your cruise CLIMB power settings to get to FL250?

Thanks.
