The turbo at redline MP and RPM makes more HP at 5000 feet and 10,000 feet than it does at sea level. Not a good time to lean it. There is an NTSB report on this subject. A crash at Pagosa Springs from some years ago. P210 leaned on takeoff. Not a pretty picture. Regards, George """ Walter: Any thoughts about leaning the TSIO 550 engine for high altitude take-offs. (5000' +) Thanks, Bill Hogarty """
