Then it was start and go.. no ground time.. it was 100F out and we did not
want to overheat on the ground... FULL Power climb to 10,000MSL where the
outside temps were cooler and we could run it full throttle at cruise.
Stayed there for 1+30 monitoring oil temp and pressure (no CHT available).


When I was member of a local club full of old pilots, they had a cilinder
crack on a 0-300 form a C172B. They pulled the cilinders, topped it and
then proceeded to 'break it in' by insisting on reduced power for the next
100hours...

I quit that club and joined another.
