5.9. CRUISING POWER SETTING,
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Conditions Weight: 600 kg
Temperature: ISA
Wind: zero
Total Fuel: 99 Liter (usable)
NOTE: Fuel remaining for cruise is equal to 99 liters usable:
- less climb fuel
- less 6 L for 30 min VFR reserve fuel at 47% power (ISA @ 10,000 ft PA)
- less descent fuel
- less fuel used prior to takeo.
CAUTION: Actual flight endurance must be calculated from the following
tables.
NOTE: Maximum continuous power is defined by 5500 RPM, not by MAP.
MCP is 69 kW. Operation with MAP above 24 InHg with RPM below 4800 is
not recommended, see Rotax service letter SL-912-016R1.
