There have been multiple questions from Airframe and Powerplant (A & P) mechanics
The owner of a Florida-based 1977 Bonanza V35B with a turbonormalized TCM IO-520-BA engine contacted me with concerns about fuel flow. He described a recent instructional flight involving a takeoff on a "coolish day" that showed 31" MP, 2700 RPM, and 31 GPH fuel flow.
