Nicely Done Emergency Landing - Cessna 210 - 6 on board

C210s I know sometimes have cooling issues. I don't know what his power setting was but if he was at 9GPH, I could see that as an issue.

But yeah, if I have a vacuum pump go out 20 mins in on a long flight with PAX (particularly kids) knowing that I'll be in and out of the clouds with a weather system between me and my destination, I'm landing. But, I'm also a chickenchit.
On the ‘kota LOP is a cooler running condition for the cylinders than peak or ROP. I have no reason to think the bigger bore engine behaves any differently. And 9 gph should be LOP by a large margin.
