Line Up and Wait
I like to create my own checklists for the planes the local airport has to rent. I use the checklist they provide as a template for many of the things but still verify info via the POH and sometimes reorganize to what I consider better for me.
One plane is a C-172M and its airspeed indicator indicates knots per hour instead of miles per hour. Not a big deal and conversions are super easy with my fancy E6B. I've noticed a few errors in their conversions but also noticed on the V-speeds table that they have Va speeds up to a gross weight of 2,450 pounds. As far as I can tell the 172M has a max gross weight of 2,300 pounds.
A 172R has a max gross of 2450 and I'm thinking they copied the data or format from their R series plane and converted the numbers but want to make sure I'm not going nuts here. I know I can just look at the POH they have but right now I have no need or reason to drive out to the airport. I will email them to ask their input. But if anyone on here is aware of POH's getting revised then maybe I haven't found the right POH online. And with it being Sunday I likely won't get a response from anyone at the airport today.
