Hello, I have problems regarding the engine performance on the Cirrus. As per screenshot you see its nearly unpossible to climb to FL100 or even higher with 50% fuel on board…at least with a climb rate with only 500 ft/m the Cirrus is nearly to stall…is this normal? Thx

I am seeing a few serious airmanship issues here.
Not sure what leaning procedure you are following, but it looks like you are severely starving the engine. EGT is off the chart and fuel flow is way below normal, not to mention the 30% power output.
10,000 best rate of climb is 102.
I would recommend downloading a SR22 POH.
In general, it is very difficult to climb when the engine is not getting fuel.

Thx a lot fo your input…i didnt change nything regarding engine settings, made a full power take off and climb with a rate of 1000ft/m until i realize that i have this engine problem
I will check a SR22 POH
You also need to lean the engine as you climb to maintain power. It looks like you still have your mixture at 100% full rich by those readings on your gauges and would explain the issue you’re having.

I suggest flying with Auto-Mixture ON until you’re more comfortable making mixture changes. That way, you still have enjoyment flying and getting max performance out of the plane.
