Re: GPS Speed (Lancair 320): 272 KTS (313 MPH)

My highest ground speed in the Super Legacy is 386.488334 Kts. I did not see it at the time, but later after down loading the data.

 

On my recent return from the west coast I did note a 345 Kt ground speed. But since I did not take a picture, I guess it must not have happened.

 

The 345 Kt GS was at normal cruise while the 386 Kt GS was at a bit higher power setting than cruise.

Here is my highest recorded speed. 272 KTS (313 MPH) on 160 HP at 7 GPH. This speed occurred on a trip from Detroit to Newport News at 11,000 ft. I think that I had a tailwind
