the acclaim Mario

here is the video I was referring to:

Hi Guys.... sorry it took a bit to respond. I spoke with Schllc on the phone and he gave me some pretty awesome advise. My plane has the 280 hp engine on it. I am going to fly it to Vegas tomorrow and will try lean of peak settings and see what happens.

Hello Guys, I am new to the forum. My name is Mario and for the last 9 months I have owned an Acclaim. I recently decided to start flying it after thinking about selling it for a few months. I am quite happy with the decision but I need advise as to how you guys are flying the bird. I recently took a trip to Oregon and back home. On my way back, I took the Acclaim to 17.5k feet and the plane was doing 200 knots at 27” MP, 19 gallons/hr, 75 degrees ROP. After landing, I read that is not the way to fly this thing. I read some videos where it is recommended to fly LOP at this settings. I also saw that at 17 gallons an hour LOP, the TAS is more like 217 knots. Some video I watched from Mike Busch said to always run the MP at the firewall and only use the prop pitch and mixture. Do any of you use this procedure?? Can someone enlighten me on how to operate this thing or who to talk to? I can provide my number by PM. By the way, I finally love my Acclaim! Thanks in advance.
