Default Figuring out what affects my speed

Just for the record, a real Baron will not see 195 true, and most operators
do not cruise at 2520 rpm and egt peak. The fuel burn is high under these
conditions, and it is also loud inside.

These operating conditions are probably not within the normal operating
parameters of either the POH or the suggestions by John Deakin, whomever you
chose to believe.

Most pilots will cruise at more reduced power settings to keep the fuel burn
down if nothing else.
