Got my '95 Brava 519MB a week ago. Spent 5 hours with a CFII getting familiarized with the Bravo, and learning to land again. Flew a 201 prior to that, so am learning about turbo chargers etc. I have come across a couple of threads commenting on ideal power settings, and I'm sure there are many opinions, but one that I took note of stated that 50 df ROP is a very bad power setting. Just flew from DVN to NQA and ironically was at 32" MP 2400 RPM and 50 df ROP at 16.4 gph. I thought this was great, but am I harming the engine?
Second question is about the kfc 150. I have had some problems flying approaches and having the AP pick up the GS. It flies the GPS flight plan without a problem and flies each leg of the approach. When I turn final I push the APR button and end up fighting the AP to follow the GS.
Thoughts and advice are greatly appreciated.
