In Texas in hot days the CHT gets up quickly and I have to alter my ROC accordingly, usually have to slow down and even at times level for a few minutes to keep the CHT below 400. I am beginning to believe that my bafflings needs work but on cold days the climb is not a problem, remember here summer usually means 100 to 110 degrees on the ground. Once in cruise i usually like to go 2400 and 30 inches to keep the pressurization up, any less and my pressure suffers. I try to stay below 23,000 feet to limit my TOC in case of depressurization even though I carry a high pressure mask and have nozzles and mountain high equipment with a 70 cf kevlar tank of 02 in the back of the bulkhead (which I filled 18 months ago and still has pressure). regards andres
