I'm usually running 23/21 or 23/20.5 Even if I ran 23 squared I'd still
only get maybe 130.


Well, put flap gap seals, aileron gap seals, stabilator gap seals, fancy
wheel pants, a faired landing light, cut down gas caps, a fuselage/wing
fairing, and a brand new engine in your bird, and you'll gain ten knots.

Oh, and take the beacon off your tail, too.

Is it worth it? Probably not -- heck, he probably spent $15K to get ten
knots. But I'm really, REALLY glad to have the speed.
