I'm just befuddled how on earth these things are fuel injected and have a mixture lever.. I can understand a no feedback open loop system, but speed-density has worked for mix control in cars ever since the GM TBI system of the late 70s/early 80s.

Also, the Cessna I flew had no carb heat but a mixture lever.
Could you do a forward slip in a T-44?
