AdamFrisch,
Is that a piston-engine Commander? Although the OP seems to be referring to turbine a/c, it sems to me the situation is generally worse in pistons. That may seem obvious, because most turbines have a higher power-to-weight ratio. What I have in mind is that the drag on an unfeathered piston is probably greater than on an unfeathered turbo-prop. But I stand to be corrected.
