With the wheel pants & leg fairings installed, I set out this am to
record some speed/performance data. Here's the results. I haven't
validated the IAS so I don't know if there's an error in the static
ports. After paint they are essentially flush with the skins, and I
understand that can be a problem.

I'm not sure how this is going to format so I'm also attaching a
spreadsheet version of the data.

Thanks Deems!
Good stuff. Now I don't have enough time on my -10 to make an
informed statement (that never stops me) but I know my little 6A loved
higher. I flew to Cottonwood the other day at 11,500 GPS = 197.00 Kts.
Now we all find a tail wind once in a while so I don't put ANY weight
into that number but I believe that 6,500 is still less than ideal for
optimizing speed in our similarly configured planes (BPE, SJ, Portly).
Regardless solid numbers for a wonderful design & your beautiful build.

Robin
