I did a search for this topic already, so don't jump all over me. I still couldn't find a good answer.
I am renting an aircraft from an FBO that charges by TACH time. I want to get the most "bang" for my buck. What is the best way to run? (I understand the whole "in the pattern" theory, but I need an answer for long-haul flights)
Do I want to pull the power back to, lets say, 55% power and run a slow Tach?
Or do I want "balls to the wall" and run it at red line?
What is going to give me the best return on my rental dollar?
Thanks!
