I couldn't agree more. Our annual trips to Idaho usually had six to eight airplanes. All Model IVs except the two Rans - one an S-6 the other an S-7. On the first trip one guy flew behind a 582. We had no problem throttling back and flying at his speed. That procedure became the norm on every trip we took together for almost ten years. My map shows dots on about 19 airports and strips all over the state.
