The airport is 900MSL and I flew solo (185lb) at 2500MSL starting with
42.8 gallons of gas on 10/11/97.  An overview of the one hour flight
(datapoints every six seconds) always at full rich is:

<p>
<li>takeoff and power reduction at 500AGL because of high CHT
<li>climbing cool down
<li>full power test
<li>cool down (2400rpm)
<li>bottom of green arc test
<li>full power test
<li>cool down and leaf peaking.
<li>max cruise (400CHT on #2 that worked out to about 2500rpm)
<li>full power test
<li>getting to pattern
<li>landing
