About This Calculator

  • 📋 Data is sourced from the PA-28R-201 Arrow III POH, Section 5 Power Setting Table (Lycoming IO-360-C1C6, Best Power Mixture)
  • ⚙️ Fixed at 65% power and 2500 RPM, mixture set 100°F rich of peak EGT — approx. fuel flow 11.4 GPH
  • 📐 MP is linearly interpolated between table altitudes, then corrected for non-standard temperature
  • 🌡️ Correction: approximately 0.16 in. Hg per 10°F (5.5°C) deviation from standard temperature — added when warmer than standard, subtracted when colder
  • ⚠️ 9,400 ft is the critical altitude for this power setting — above it, 65% power is not obtainable even at full throttle
  • ⚠️ For training and planning reference only. Always consult official documentation before flight.

Disclaimer: This calculator is for training and planning purposes only. Always verify power settings using official aircraft documentation and the POH before flight.
