That's my next step (getting a HP/complex endorsement), but I need to find
another FBO and don't have the time right now.

So, the next best thing I did was to take the "Commercial Pilot" lessons in
"Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004" which has a pretty good overview (for a
beginner at least) of what flying high-performance/complex is all about.

It's pretty basic so you may already know this stuff, but as an initial
overview, it's great -- the initial FS2004 lesson discusses manifold
pressure, the prop governor, and procedures for operating them and the
retractable gear.

Just FYI, in case you have FS2004

I'm trying to locate info on the net that relate to hi perfromance and
constant speed props. Any suggestions?

TIA,
