Hi Larry. I looked back at my knee pad writings, this was about 10 years ago.
I had the soob and did idle it at 1500 rpm to keep the temps up. With a 1.69
reduction this was about 850-900 rpm at the prop. I do know according to my
notes that it took me a long time to get down to 1500 feet and that was 65
miles
from the start of my decent. and 10 miles from my home field. I enjoyed the
ride, locked on my wing leveler/autopilot and listened to my stereo !! It was a
nice smooth ride. The Kr will fly at idle, and I did not have the nerve to
shut down the engine although I have done that over a grass strip (Just in case)
Cheers,
Steve
