Looks pretty good to me. Not black and sooty, and not to clean.

Don't use your plugs to determine if you are running rich or lean.

are you serious? maybe not running a little lean at cruise (14.5-15.0) but underload, anything about 14.5 could be very dangerous to the engine. being rich is always safer then going lean.
