Economic motive for power control; to operate at optimum fuel efficiency, three different factors must be considered: aerodynamic efficiency, propeller efficiency, and engine efficiency; each is discussed; forms of performance curves for selection of cruise control data; pros and cons of cruise control methods; presentation of cruise control information; crew functions; basic improvements needed.
