My mother and I will be going to Vermont this summer in a Seneca, with my CFI instructing me. This, indeed, will be a multi lesson for me and will be logged as such (and I'm paying). Most likely, the trip will be in a Seneca III.
In any event, I'd like to make the most of this trip. Although I don't yet have the PPL (almost there!), I do have some time in twins, but very limited actual flying experience. My CFI said he'll let me handle a lot of the flying, except T/O and landings. He knows the Seneca quite well, but I'd just like any insider advice you might have gained from your intimate knowledge of the bird.
Any sweet spots for power/RPM settings? Is there are good time to start cruise climb? At 2,000' AGL? Anything else?
