2700 Miles in a Cherokee Six

AeroSavvy

More air molecules in engine cylinders allow the engine to produce more power; more air molecules moving across the propellor blades and wings means more efficient thrust and lift. As altitude increases, air molecules spread out, resulting in less power and lift. When we reached the OATES intersection, I pointed the Six toward Winslow.
