Our Europa has the same rotax 912 with warp drive prop set at 17
degrees. Although we don't have a fuel flow meter, I can tell you that
we regularly cruise at 5000rpm, giving 120 kts indicated (and confirmed
by the gps) and always fill the fuel right up at the end of the day,
then fill the cans back to full at the garage, so I have a pretty good
idea of the fuel consumption which is 3.6 imperial gallons/hour. If we
mix in a few circuits etc it is more like 3 gallons/hour even though we
still doing quite a bit at 120 kts
