regime.  His pitch is 74 mine is 72 but as anyone knows comparing pitch
between two different prop makers is not reliable. However, that could
account for my engine turning slight more rpm.   In any case, the cord of
his prop is approx 6 1/4 inches while the chord of my prop is 5 1/8".
Clearly don't know if that would make that kind of difference in
performance, but it was the only thing we could come up with.  I set my
timing differently today and will go out and fly it tomorrow.
