What is an acceptable CHT in cruise? How hot can one stay in extended cruise
flight? I've got 6 new ones and want to take care of them.
Our club instructors caution people not to lean the Lance to anything
higher than 1400 degrees.
1400 is EGT not CHT. I keep my CHT around 300 plus or minus.
Lycoming used to say 500, but that's really high the way I see it.
HTH.
