On the Lycoming iE2-tt540 powered Evolution EVOP-350 website max cruise 28GPH 230KTAS, economy cruise 16GPH 200KTAS.

I'm going to assume the max cruise FADEC setting is very ROP (hopefully, assuming Lycoming's computer programmers are not the same mob that have been promoting 'best power' all these years)

Also the economy cruise, given say an 8:1 compression ratio (too generous?) looking at around 75% power if it was LOP

So it doesn't add up quite, what % power is 28GPH?

Anyone able to shed some light?
