Getting close to the end of my RV-8 project I have started to wonder what my RV-8 will perform like once it is flying. It has an lyc. 200hp A1B6 with hartzell 2 blade c/s prop. I know the official performance numbers from vans website, but I also find that many aircraft manufactures are - lets say - a bit optimistic with their numbers. Being unable to find a RV-8 database with realworld performance numbers I thought some of you who are allready flying might share your experience. How close are you to the vans numbers and what configuration is your plane? Engine - prop -modifications?
