Climbed to 6500' over the airport and began a conservative program. Did mild maneuvering, approaches to stalls, simulated approaches at altitude, flaps at 50% and 100%. .6 hour. Limited airspeed to 110 Kt. OAT 50F. Water temp 190 in climb, 180 with power back. Oil temp 170. Needs more left rudder on take-off and climb than expected, otherwise flys nice!
