Hi Frans=2C
Talking about fuel consumption again=2C I am surprised to learn that you ca
n get 4 1/2 hour legs. You mentioned that in your optimum cruise at 125 kts
the engine uses 18l/hour=2C and of course for takeoff and climbout the con
sumption is always a lot more. So that makes about 86 litres ? Are you usin
g the long range tank ?
