Lean of Peak operation
When operating LOP what is the normal ground speed reduction that you see? I see about 8-10 its at 60% power.
My fuel burn goes from 20 gph to about 16 gph typically at 7 - 9,000 ft. Cylinder head temps drop 25 - 40 degrees and the EGT stays the same, about 1380 degrees. I find that synching the engines is more sensitive during LOP and it doesn't seem to be quite as smooth running while operating LOP.
