I'm getting back into flying after a few years away, and I've learned that my FBO's insurance deductible has gone up a fair piece since then. Back then I was willing to eat the deductible if something happened to the plane, but it's too pricy now. So I'm shopping. Who's got the best rate these...

With the throttle at idle, and plane trimmed for best glide, what is your plane's descent rate (in fpm)? I tried this with my Cherokee 180 and found the resulting descent to be somewhere between 900 and 1000fpm. (This was measured on the VSI, not via altimeter plus stopwatch, so it is prone to...

the best glide speed of a warrior is quoted as 73 kts. but best glide should be at best lift /drag ratio which I recall is at about 4 degree angle of attack. But this must be a function of weight. So my questions are what weight is the 73 kts based on ? and how much does this best speed change...
