I agree with you Dave

By the way all the information related to the Catto prop is true.  I put the
prop on his plane and I think we can do even better then he is getting.  The
prop is a 67 X 80 and he's getting 2300 rpm static.  I am going to put it on
my XL and see if I can get the same.  If I can I will be changing the pitch
to 82" and see if we  can get more top end.  My pitch is only 76 and I'm
only seeing 172 TAS.  We both are running IO-540 260HP.  His plane weights
in close to 200lbs more then mine.  I will be doing it sometime next week.
I think we now have a very good alternative for the MT and you can print
that and take it to the bank.  Close to a $10K saving in building of a new
plane, right off the top.
