A 36 is 5 kts slower...I don't think so

155 for a typical 210 v 165 for a typical 36 v a little quicker again for a typical 35.

I can slow my Bo down to 155 by operating well lean of peak EGT and only burn 49 liters/hr while the 210 is burning 60 doing 155ktas...faster my arse

Lets face it...210, V35 and A36 share the same engine/prop...which aeroplane is sleeker and lighter at MTOW?

210s and the Cherokee 6 variants are great load haulers...but you pay a price for that.
