Default Mixture--science vs witchcraft?

Any suggestions or comments?


Do you have an engine analyzer on board, Doug?

If so, this tool (we have the JPI EDM-700) lets you lean with
confidence that you're not harming anything...



I do--the Insight GEM 602. I'm doing my best to integrate that information
(I'm new to this instrument), too. My question is less about "harming" the
engine from over-leaning than it is about achieving max power for takeoff &
landing (i.e., potential go-around). Of course, failing to achieve that
power could result in harming the whole airframe, eh...?
