Finally got quasi-legal VFR conditions for a short flight today and declared total success for the auto-program mode on the EC2-EM2 combination.
Test started with the all zero default MAP table on the EC2 (no programming at all). After a 12 minute ground run (slowly increasing throttle from idle to about 16" MAP) followed by a 35 minute flight, the EC2 was programmed better than I have been able to do after years of manual tweaking. Absolutely Magic! Very cool watching it happen on the EM2 screen too.

See. I told ya'. You took 130hrs. Steve took 13. And I'll be napping after 1.3. That's an hour to verify the cooling, and 20min to tune the engine 8*)

This is by far the hardest lesson about freedom. It goes against
instinct, and morality, to just sit back and watch people make
mistakes. We want to help them, which means control them and their
decisions, but in doing so we actually hurt them (and ourselves)."
