When I first started flying C310's the bloke who did my ICUS time told me to lean it back to No 2 on the Mixture Quadrant for Taxi and after landing.
Now I happened to fly a reasonably experienced C414/c340 Operator/LAME/Private Pilot recently and reckons he's never seen it before?
In the dim dark past I remember someone saying they got told to lean c206's for TAXI?
Now while the POH/check-List doesnt mention anything about leaning for the taxi and Ive never noticed a change in fuel flow when Ive done this. Has anyone out there got a good reason to continue a procedure which isnt mentioned in the POH?
