That young fellow was obviously inexperinced .Most of us would have walked over the top then down through in one fell swoop .---or maybe not ,everybody does it differently .
Along the same lines and first admitting I'm not an aviator .However I know several pilots and this is what they said on carbeurated air craft such as a small Cesana .
Once they made the climb to say 5-7000 feet or whatever they flew at ,they watched the cylinder head temperature and could...
That's one of the reasons I run 32 to 1 but enough said about that .:)
I could have said I never hung one if a situation hadn't occured recently .I think I grabbed a squeeze bottle of straight gas and ruined a cylinder on a Mac .My fault from not paying attention ,head up azz .:( Things...
It was a week or two ago when I helped Tom on one of his jobs .It was a clearing job and part of it was mowing around 400 feet of 6-8 foot tall cattails clogging a drainage ditch .
The temperature was mid 90's . My poor tractor was running hot,vapor locking and just had a hell of a time .I set...

Butch some of the newer saws are equipted with a deflecter that throws heat back on the carb so they run better at low temps .I don't own any that new myself ,kinda goes with out saying .:lol:
On occasion the electronic ignition moduals rebel if they get over heated also .
Might sound funny but if you set the thing a tad rich it will run cooler because a rich gas mixture burns cooler .Old trick in WW2 by fighter pilots with a shot up war bird that was runnng hot was to pull the choke...
