Just did my first paid flight yesterday in a PA-32. it was interesting. CHT spiked on #3. The guy I flew with has his ppl, and 515 hrs in his plane. I was basically there to file IFR... He leaned it out too much or something... So I went full rich, reduced power, turned the A/C off and got it back under control. it was shocking because he didn't even know what to do. I felt like an instructor already... If this is what I get to look forward to it's going to be a long road.
