Where can I find a copy of this alleged reference manual?
Click "Store" (above), then "Cessna 120-140 Marketplace" -- "Reference..." + order. Mac
Mac, thanks. I tried to purchase the book, but the checkout code is behaving oddly. Unable to view the qty in the qty box and when I go to check out, the site just hangs. I've tried both Firefox and Edge.
So sorry for the inconvenience -- we'll do our best to fix ASAP. Good idea to try Firefox & Edge (unfortunately that's the extent of my technical expertise :) ). Hang in there -- the manual is worth the trouble, and help is on the horizon. Mac

Hi Dave... sorry for the trouble with the store. I'm working on it now and will confirm back once it's fixed. --Rob

How much does a cruise prop over a climb prop effect cruise speed?
Happy flying. :D

Hey guys,
I just picked up a 140 with a c85 for my wife, and am looking for a little more climb than cruise. It has a mcauley 1B90 71-48. I have a couple props kicking around, one being the Sensenich M76AK-2-48. I had this on a C90 champ and bought a -42 for it. I was thinking of having the sensnich pitched down some, but figured someone has done it already, What pitch would work good with the C-85?

Thanks
Tom
