    Well yes, i trust that Garmin gps plotter wich i use for speedo and trip.
    I suppose everything klicked in place with 2 person and that 2blade prop. Weight balance, trim, prop pitch and slip.

    That is down from 58.7 you posted back in July? Or are you using a different prop from then? Conditions change so hard to tell what is working. What about rpms?

    With 2 person load!

    That 58.7kn was with 1 person load and twoblade.

    It would be interesting to see front/rear balance with 1 and 2 person load. My guess is that
    co-driver in place moves balance just a little towards aft. With 1 i have to use little more trim and prop starts to slip, because front is little heavier then.

    That was rude and unnecessary. The speed is very good, but not unobtainable.
