Take off and landing with our Mooney M20E at the 6Y9, Pricket-Grooms Field. Located in Sidnaw, Michigan's Upper Penninsula. For reference: The runway is 2,600 feet long, elevation 1,372 feet. Density altitude on this day was around 3,000 ft. Single pilot + approx. 30 gal. of fuel. Take off: Rotate at around 65 - 70 mph, gear up as soon as plane is stable. Flaps up at 90 mph. Continue to accelerate in ground effect, then climb out. Landing: Speed 'over the fence' around 75 mph, full flaps. Flare until she is done flying.- 15 replies

I am interested to know the different ways (techniques) you guys lean for high altitude take offs. I live at the coast and have little opportunity or need for this. Also, at what altitude do you believe it becomes necessary to lean for take off. In case it helps I have a 1967, M20F Executive. Thanks Tony

An engine/tachometer concern. On takeoff with full power applied MP goes up normally and remains constant. However, RPM increases to about 2500, then fluctuates between 2300 and 2500 for about 3 seconds, then increases to 2700 and remain there. There is no apparent decrease or fluctuation in power output. In flight RPM behavies normally. And, this anomaly does not occur during power increase for a go-around or on a touch & go landing. But, it does reoccur during a taxi back and takeoff. Should we be concerned?
