1. (Refer to figure 033-32)
A flight has to be made with a multi engine piston aeroplane. For the fuel calculations take 5 US gallons for the taxi, and an additional 13 minutes at cruise condition to account for climb and descent. Calculated time overhead to overhead is 2 hrs 37 min.
• Power setting is 65%, 2.500 RPM
• Calculated reserve fuel is 30% of the Trip Fuel
• FL120, OAT is 1°C
Find the minimum Block Fuel:
