>I may want to trade 71-48 for a 52 thants Ken C Ken I was flying with a 48 in my 85hp 415-C and the engine would just reach redline in level flight. Went to the 71-50 and it would only turn up to about 2400 full throttle cruise and it took 250 more feet on takeoff roll and I lost 100fpm on climb. and gained only 4mph on average. Borrowed a 71-52 from my local IA and could barely get off the ground. I went from a 2200 runup with the 48 to barely 2000 rpm with the 52 and could only turn up about 2250 in level flight. Climb was scarey at best only getting about 300fpm and that was low on fuel and just me in the plane. At best I'd only go to the 50 not the 52 unless you have an 0200. I'm sticking with the 71-48. If you'd like to "try B4 you buy" let me know. I'll UPS the 52 out if you'll cover the shipping both ways and you can give it a whirl. (provided my IA will loan it out again) otherwise you can try the 50 pitch I own for a spare. Claude 620
