Yep, another few hours and I will have met the time requirement - I =
still
need to do a "Max-Gross" test - which I'm a little hesitant to do with =
my
current prop. I'll work my way up to it slowly and see how it performs.

One thing I've got to learn - even after almost 40 hours of flying this
plane - is to put the gear up!  I'm so used to fixed gear planes that I
don't even think to put the gear up. I was flying Sunday and just =
couldn't
figure out why I had lost 10-12kts off my already sluggish top speed. It
only took me 30 minutes to figure it out :)  It's also a lot quieter =
with
the gear up!
