The formula is a little misleading in that it does not take in to
consideration all of the variables necessary to calculate true %HP.  It is a
nice formula to use for general discussion.  I would not recommend using it
for setting fuel flows or for flight operations.

industry standard (verifable in any STC POH) is: (RPM/2700)*(MAP/29)=HP
