    Greetings! So yes, since I installed the new engine Monitor, I get 10 GPH at 65% power, at 2200 RPM. It seems that at lower RPM, the tit is lower. I keep my tit at 1700 or below, and 65% normally gives me 1650-1675. Other owners use more fuel to keep the TIT even lower. Some say they run their...

    You really need a turbo charged airplane, or 114 as a Minimum

    If that's your Mission, then the Only Plane to consider is a 114/115 TC. My 112TC solders on up from SL to 13-14k at 500 feet per minute (working with only 210 HP) and 20 plus GPH, Never been higher then that, but I would expect that climb rate up to 16-18, when the Critical altitude is reached.

    Welcome Joe, there are few if any small Airplanes out there that will give you the Room and Visibility that a Commander will. Parts have never been a problem for anyone in this group, no matter what part you may need. I doubt in the history of Commander world Anyone has regretted his choice in...

    New Gear Pumps

    So, is there any progress on the New Pump replacement? I believe mine is Original to the Airplane as well, and I would much rather have a new one then one that's been overhauled.
