I know exactly what you mean, yr right.

When I find the tools under my carpet out of a 100 hourly, the tooth fairy put them there. When the temperature probe is left disconnected out of a 100 hourly, the Unicorn did it. When the magneto advance is 2 degrees too far advanced out of a 100 hourly, the cat did it.

Engineers never make mistakes. Manufacturers never make mistakes.

The problem is never the appalling quality control or competence of manufacturers or LAMEs. Those cookd clys are always the pilot’s fault.

It must be the pilot’s fault, because the manufacturers and the LAMEs say so.

I’m begging you to save other pilots from the lies that I’m telling.

You know how to prevent cookd clys.

Explain the throttle, mixture and propeller settings that pilots should use, and what indications pilots should expect, to operate a piston engine the safe, yr right way.

Please.
