Why look it up when it comes in, in a flash? AND creates divisive
discussion. Love it!
Seriously, much appreciated, and it is locked in like the answer in a TV
Quiz.

The formula is a little misleading in that it does not take in to
consideration all of the variables necessary to calculate true %HP.  It
is a
nice formula to use for general discussion.  I would not recommend using
it
for setting fuel flows or for flight operations.

industry standard (verifable in any STC POH) is:
(RPM/2700)*(MAP/29)=HP<<<
