I still don't understand how "75% best power setting" can be better power than "75% best economy setting" when they are both at 75% rated HP of the engine......Unless someone if flying like a numpty and leaving the red knob full forward all the time that is. In which case the tables should be labeled:

For Moron Pilot (leave the red knob alone)
&
For proper Pilot (adjust the knob as required)
