Here's a question that until yesterday I'd have thought was
obvious.


Cessna-style (and no doubt other) ignition switches have five
settings -- Off/Right/Left/Both/Start. When you're on the "Right"
setting, does it mean you are firing on the right magneto or
does it mean the right magneto is grounded?


Is this covered in the plane's POH?


Good question. It isn't. It isn't covered in the
shop manual either.
