Hey, your fuse is really short (so what else is new?) ;-)


Yes, I have a low tolerance for people like you who see a need to label a
person wrong, no matter how much you have to stretch your interpretation of
what they said to do it.

You and I know that "Don't lean below xxxx feet" is one of the baddest,
wrongest, silliest (are those words?) OWTs (Old Wive's Tales) in
aviation. So, IMHO, we need to do all we can to keep it from getting
propagated. That's all I was trying to do.


Not that I could tell. The ONLY thing your post claimed was that not all
POHs provide an altitude below which one doesn't lean the engine. Which is
true, but in no way contradicts anything I wrote.

You made no comment whatsoever regarding actual operations. You only
contested your perception of what I wrote (which wasn't accurate anyway).

Pete
