BTW, Beech sez I've got 20 gallon tanks, with 17.5 usable. After running
my right tank dry, I can put fill with 20.8 gallons. [...] Fortunately, what Beech put in my owners book were written by engineers with an engineers fudge factor. [...] Way lotta slop there. "Usable" means usable in EVERY flight attitude. The "unusable" fuel can be used in SOME flight attitudes, obviously some of that unusable fuel could be used in the specific flight attitude in which you were at the time. Jose -- Quantum Mechanics is like this: God =does= play dice with the universe, except there's no God, and there's no dice. And maybe there's no universe. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |
