That makes sense to me, Ed, and it might also have been a factor in my prop strike incident.  
 
You would think a bigger disc area would give more drag, so it makes sense, though I never noticed anything like that when I went from 68 to 74.  Then again, my idle is about 1600 rpm, so maybe not slow enough to matter.  
 
John, Clark said to stop messing up his prop.  Yeah, I told him :-)
