Bill - Thanks for sharing the flight data for your RV- 6. I have not
performed a similar test - I have only written down all engine and
speed data as I fly. I have one recent data point that is close to
your test data at 7500 ft. RV-7A, Renesis and RD-1C, 88/76 Catto
prop, 195 # pilot and 240 # pass., 30 # baggage and 18 gal. fuel.
Flying at 7500 ft altitude, 56 deg OAT. -- 6000 rpm, approx.10.15 gph,
150 mph indicated, 170 TAS. Oil temp 177 deg. F. Water 160 deg. F.
I'll use your graphs and add data points as I can in the future. I
have not tried WOT at 3000 ft. yet.
I hoope to be flying more now that Spring is just around the corner!
