Just another point on cross-country efficiency. If you are going a  

long way and can increase your leg length to the point where you can  

eliminate a leg from your trip, the time saved by not making one stop  

will probably make up for any speed increase you would have by  

operating at a less-efficient but faster altitude.



I know that I am equipping The Project with O2 so I can operate up  

high. With the M14P I was expecting to do cross-country flights up  

around 17,000' for the purposes of efficiency.
