It is my understanding that the computers in cars use oxygen sensors in
the exhaust and not EGT to keep the mixture right. My question is why
not use oxygen sensors in airplanes? Is EGT easier to interpret when
it's a human instead of a computer controlling the mixture or is it just

that it's always been done that way?

The oxygen sensors cannot tolerate leaded fuel.
