Maybe you need to discover a VMC roll after losing an engine.

Beautiful plane sir! It is my dream to own one of these myself some day!

what speed is Vy for you?

Hey Keitexas, one question i'd like to make (if you allow me to): you said that you use wide open throttles from takeoff until cruise, backing off the props at 1000 ft. Before this latter procedure, do you get an RPM reading beyond the red line? I'm asking this because i've never flown a true Baron, but that's what i get in the simulator. Thanks in advance, best regards and great flights!

The Baron has got to be my favorite plane. It even seems to be quiet inside.

@contraposaune There is no procedure for a short field takeoff with flaps in a 58 Baron. The objective during takeoff in a light twin is NOT to become airborne before VMC ( 84kts ) if you do and lose an engine it's game over. So you rotate at 85 kts and keep the nose down to accelerate through blue line ( VSSE - 101 kts ) ASAP. Then gear up and pitch up for VY. Speed is the goal with a twin, not altitude. Altitude does no good if you don't have control of the airplane.

Nice video, I love the sound of the props syncing up!

@maggith98 I'm pretty sure the G58 only needs flaps on short field takeoff?
-
@maggith98 A Baron doesn't require flaps for takeoff.
After takeoff what do you set the manifold pressure as and what did you set the prop rpm to?

@flyinhigher1000 Throttle wide open until cruise and props back to 2500 at 1000ft.

@keitexas Thank You, but isn't the throttle always to be behind the props?

@flyinhigher1000 It is, manifold pressure drops as you climb. Go fast cruise setting at 8000ft is throttles wide open yielding about 18"-19" of manifold pressure, props 2500. Typically the throttles are wide open from takeoff until decent for landing unless you need to conserve fuel.
