Mixture
Provides a mechanical linkage to fuel injector mixture
Control control to control size of fuel feed aperture,
therefore the airifuel mixture. It is primary method
to shut engine down.
EGT
A temperature measuring system that senses EXHAUST
GAS TEMPERATURE (EGT) in the exhaust pipe. The EGT
gauge is the primary indication for mixture leaning in cruise
flight at
75%
power or less.
Tachometer
Instrument that indicates engine rotational speed.
Speed is shown as propeller revolutions per minute
(RPM).
Propeller
Device that regulates RPM of enginelpropeller by
Governor increasing or decreasing propeller pitch through a
pitch change mechanism in propeller hub.

METEOROLOGICAL TERMINOLOGY
AGL Above ground level.
Density Altitude as determined by pressure altitude and Al-
titude existing ambient temperature. In standard atmosphere
(ISA) density and presure altitude are equal. For a given
pressure altitude, the higher the temperature, the higher
the density altitude.
