**TCM -CMI should lift their game. They put out a handbook that condones running their engines on the edge of disaster based on a CHT reading from only one cylinder and an EGT reading which is the average of three cylinders. All this when they know their temperatures are all over the place due to their failure to rectify known design faults. They treat us like mugs because they know that cylinder failure is a gradual event that normally occurs outside of warranty and if earlier it's the pilots fault anyway.**

To be fair, those recommendations do not come from TCM/CMI, but from the airframe OEM.

I do hear what you say, however.
