    Hi Don,

    We met at the Cheyenne PPP, I am one of the new instructors.  I have a client who has a Bravo and I wanted to ask if you wouldn't mind sharing your speeds and checklist document or any other document where your discuss the key number concept '53'.  I would like to use it to help my client with proper engine management.

    Regards,

    Geoff Reid.

      Hi Geoff,

      I've attached my speeds and checklist document.  The key number 53 for the Bravo is confirmed from the red Lycoming manual.  I fly at 75% power: 29" MP, 2400 RPM.  I lean to keep my TIT at 1600°F or lower.  At that power setting the FF should be between 17.5 and 18 gal/hour ROP.  I don't fly Lycomings LOP.

      Don
