@harbinjr: "I know that piston engine aircraft have a sweet spot where at a certain altitude, they get the
best performance or economy, but what about turbine aircraft? I know that turbines like
the cooler, higher altitudes, so I fly close to the ceiling when I fly them, and they seem
to suck fuel at lower altitude. I would like to fly lower, so I was wondering if there
is a sweet spot for say a turboprop engine?

It's true for turbine aircraft, also.  Most flight management systems are
programmed to configure the aircraft for best economy by default, although the
crew can select best performance or decide all the details themselves, if they
wish.
They are turbines as well, so they should also have sweet spots, but I don't
know much about turboprop performance."
