F'christ sake Henrickles, you never heard of 'checks and
balances'?...it merely keeps people with responsibilities
'honest'...I'd much rather have the guy holding the scalpel worry
about not making an error while inside my pink body than if there was
nothing but 'pride in his work' to hold his attention on the job at
hand.

"Bull shit! This is a constant speed prop. RPM is a
set value. The RPM can be set at 3000 and the
manifold pressure can be anywhere between 15 inches
and 61 inches, and it's the manifold pressure
combined with the set RPM that will determine the
power.....NOT the RPM!!! Are you trying to tell
me that the rotational (energy) of a propeller is
the same at 15 inches as it is at 61?".
