1. Mixture Control - Bob Tait's Aviation Theory School Forums
17 nov 2010 · An engine is running with the mixture fully rich. Progressive leaning to peak EGT will produce: A. Best economy at peak EGT B. Best power first, followed by ...
Hi guys, I have just completed one of the practice CyberExams for CSYA and came across this question: An engine is running with the mixture fully rich....
2. What's The Best Leaning Option For Your Engine? - Boldmethod
3 jul 2014 · When you lean to peak EGT (best economy), you're burning 100% of the fuel that enters your cylinder. That's as efficient as you can get. But, ...
There are lots of techniques to lean an engine - and most aircraft have two different leaning options for cruise: best power and best economy.
3. Technique: Leaning the mixture - AOPA
1 mrt 2017 · 1. At altitude, set cruise power. 2. Lean by reducing the mixture gradually until the engine runs a little rough. You may see a slight increase in rpm before ...
A little fuel, a little air. The right ratio makes
all the difference.
4. Lean Of Peak EGT - Aviation Safety Magazine
31 okt 2019 · Leaning an aircraft's piston engine fuel/air mixture is critical to obtain the performance and fuel economy—range and endurance—the “book” says ...
Its basic human nature that we often want to improve the efficiency of the things we do. Its also human nature to be skeptical when were offered something of value that carries little or no cost: Wheres the catch? What am I giving up to benefit from this largesse? These can be legitimate questions, and they deserve detailed answers, no matter whats being offered. When considering how pilots use the mixture control to manage aircraft piston engines, desires to improve efficiency and healthy skepticism can intersect.
5. Lean of Peak (EGT) Operations : Aircraft Pros & Cons - Pilot Workshops
Lean, rich or peak, what we're referring to is the mixture setting. Beginning at full rich, as you reduce the fuel flow (i.e. you lean the engine) the exhaust ...
Decide whether to fly your aircraft lean of peak or rich of peak. In this post, we define peak temperature (EGT) and explain lean of peak operations.
6. Leaning mixture using EGT indicator - Fly with Stan
11 jan 2019 · Start to lean the mixture monitoring the EGT indicator; The EGT starts to rise, follow leaning it slowly till it the engine reaches it's peak ...

There are plenty of articles about this but I wanted to launch this topic here (probably for 100th time) as it seems there are so many different opinions. Can someone on here, in plain English, but completely scientific, explain how leaning the mixture influences RPM and EGT and why it's all...
8. Mixture During Descent - PilotWorkshops
The mixture is adjusted for EGT's to remain 125 to 150 degrees on the rich side of peak (ROP) during climb out, then aggressively leaned out after leveling for ...
Jeff: “I can’t fully answer this question with the brevity of a tip. And most POHs aren’t much help with ‘Mixture—ENRICHEN as required.’ But as long as you adopt a ‘Do no harm’ mantra, you have many options. Let me explain. The discussion of the mixture knob starts with the power lever. Pilots generally fall […]
9. Proper Mixture Setting - Flight School Discussion - X-Plane.Org Forum
17 mei 2009 · The correct procedure is to very slowly lean until you see peak RPM (or maximum vacuum if the plane has a CS prop). If you have an EGT gauge you ...
This may be a very silly question but how do I know that I have the proper mixture setting for the altitude and RPMs that I'm currently at. Tried to do some research on the web but mainly just get Cessna 172 check list and all it says is adjust. Just would like to know what I'm looking for exactl...
10. Leaning Lycoming Engines
For direct-drive and for normally aspirated engines with a prop governor, but without fuel flow or EGT, set throttle at full power and lean mixture at maximum ...
Revision “D” to Service Instruction No. 1094 supersedes all previous recommendations and should be used for engine leaning during normal flight operations. All leaning recommendations are based on calibrated instrumentation. Lycoming strongly recommends that all engine instrumentation be calibrated annually. All instrumentation for manifold pressure, engine RPM, oil temperature, cylinder head temperature, exhaust gas temperature and turbine inlet temperature in the aircraft should be included in this annual calibration.
