Absolutely not unfortunately. We take the airplane to Sacramento area for phases. I have a place down there that the work quality and customer service far exceeds the fuel cost and hassle of flying it down there once a year. There may be a decent closer option but I haven’t found it.

we have the -42 upgrade with 3 blade props and run them at 720c for about 260-265ktas on about 275lbs/side at FL250-280... down low expect 400lbs/side This doesn’t seem right…I have -41’s. Flight level 280 I can hold a 5.4 on one flow pack only. Never seen it below 6.0 with both. I get 253-260TAS weight depending at 280, 700C, burning 250-255 gph. I love the efficiency of these 41/42 airplanes. Don’t let the purchase price distract you from how efficient and affordable these are to operate. Amazing dispatch reliability, affordable parts, on and on. Chris

That all sounds about right. I gave an altitude range, at 270-280, we see those same fuel flows. See attached. You must have a tight airframe. 6.0 is redline, so I’ve always been comfortable seeing 5.5 or so. The big difference between -41 and -42 is climb above 14k. ITT is higher on -41 for same torque value. I just set temp to 720 all the way up. I think it would take longer with -41 without pushing ITT higher. GLWS
