UH-1H

A rise of 2 degrees C causes a loss of 1.5 PSI torque

A rise of each 1000 foot in altitude will cause a loss of 0.75 PSI torque

An increase of 1 PSI torque is equivelent to 200 LBS lift capability

For a given power setting, there is approx 1000 LBS difference in gross weight between IGE and OGE

Hovering OGE requires approx 5 PSI torque more than IGE
