Default RE: Engine Dyno

Yes, since I am electronician I have been not fully aware that those Aerodynamics
guys have such simple and robust way to calculate almost all we need to know.
And now I see what amount of time and efforts & fuel I have been wasting instead
of just typing the RPM numbers in Excel data sheet. Nowadays I am taking the
Laptop with me on the Airfield and type the numbers when I try another propeller
or fuel. I can see WHERE is the Egnine Power output versus to what I think is the
case and some times I am (and some "gurus" around too) pretty wrong in my
"great experience" predictions. It is exteremeny helpful tool. I hope you will
enjoy it too.
