I remember reading these and finding them somewhat interesting:

I've been trying to come up with something similar for our GA spam cans, something like
FOM = (speed * useful load) / gph
, with additional penalties for retract/cs prop/6 cyl complexity (how much? 5% each?).
Is there a "standard" metric along these lines?
