RE: RCIGN1
I agree....This is getting out of hand...What I hate about the internet is that you cannot directly converse with one another---If we were all just sitting around the fire, drinking a beer or two and hashing out the friendly BS, no ones feelings would be hurt....We could SEE how the other reacted and act accordingly...
I did come on a bit strong though as I can understand what Ralph's side is...Have any of you heard of "Weather Power Factor"??? What Ralph recorded on one day in HIS environment can, and most likely, will be different from what you record in YOUR area as the given temp, barometric pressure, humidity, altitude, and etc will all be different...Even props of the same manufacturer of the same size and pitch will give differing readings...Basically you can take anyone's figures with a grain of salt as your #'s will vary...Use them for reference ONLY!!!
Soooo---Basically Ralph was called a liar and I took exception to that....Give the man the benefit of the doubt due to his experience and expertise....The #'s are as they are as measured by him on that given day...As a former automobile racer I can understand how Ralph can bang his head on the wall trying to explain his #'s...
Again, sorry for coming on too strong....It's been a bad week....
