B2B Fuel Burn?

Post by mechanic »

I was wondering what you guys/gals are getting for a fuel burn with the B2B when close to MTW @ PA of 3000' etc? Is the useful load at 600 lbs a good est? I have only Robbie time. I am trying to learn all I can about the B2B.

Thanks

My fuel burn was always between 11 and 13 gal/hour.

Max gross weight for my B-2B was 1,670. I never saw more than 13 gph even near max gross weight with density altitude at 3,000.
