Just out of curiousity, anyone flown a 210 with the TSIO550 up front?
Ahhhhh, not TSIO550 but IO550!
0.4 hrs yesterday and 2.3 hrs today
1980 C210N with zero time IO-550-L and Hartzell 82" scimitar prop
Trying to run this thing in at 70-75% power is a challenge. It is seriously quick. Makes me kinda nervous cruising 165 IAS - 5 kts into the yellow arc.
4500', 18oC, 1013, IAS 165 kts, TAS 177 kts, 68 L/hr (but that is 100oC rich of peak EGT - which is what the run-in procedure calls for). That's 67% max HP.
Climbs like the Space Shuttle - 120 kts, 1500'/min at sea level, down to 1000'/min at 6000'.
The new "office"!
