Touchy subject !
Dont take my word for the Holy word. a 200LR burns 271.3lbs of fuel per minute in crz M.82 to set the reserve: Taxi 66.6lbs per min 18minutes burn - flight so many hours xtra fuel at destination, deal with ATC- hold and traffic 36 minutes Alt destination , flight time varies with distance last a final reserve of 30 minutes you add all this and it becomes your block fuel. FSX fuel burn is full of baloney. This is flying in real weather. the CS777 fuel burn is right on - I have been amazed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too much is better than not enough We dont pay for fuel !!! ;D Raymond Boeing or nothing KFLL South Florida :o |
