The Caribou center panel. The two large gauges at the top center are the manifold pressure and engine RPM, respectively. With a setting of 26 inches and 1900 RPM, we must have been in hurry to get somewhere. The picture of the pilot's panel, taken at the same time shows these settings producing an airspeed just under 120 knots. Normal cruise settings were 20 inches and 2000 RPM, producing about 105 knots
