REFLECTOR: Static RPM Question

[Douglas Holub]

I was in Laramie last week, field elevation around 7300 feet. I was 
surprised how sluggish the plane was moving on the take-off roll. I pulled 
the mixture out a little and got about 2200 RPMs during the roll. Two blade 
fixed pitch cruise prop and a non-turbo'd 195 hp engine.
