While I get mountain wind flying experience, my base at Asheville is not high enough to demand leaning on takeoff.
I have searched with a couple of different terms for high field takeoff leaning but I only found instructions to "lean to best RPM" which does nothing for me with a CS prop. Sorry if this is a rehash from missing a previous discussion on this.
Planning to go to ABQ for the balloon thing this year (plus other places), so I want to know how you CS guys lean for takeoff. Is it done during a runup procedure or during the roll as matter of acceleration "feel" and an eye on CHT after liftoff?
