Fuel Flashcards
(Refer to figure 31.) You are flying on an IFR flight plan and encounter thunderstorms. You ask ATC for a new route of Rogue Valley (OED) to North Bend (OTH) via V287, and then Eugene (EUG) via V121. How much time will it take, and fuel consumed, given a TAS of 135 knots, altitude 10,000 feet, winds 340/25, and 15 gallons per hour?
1 hour 11 minutes; 17.7 gallons.
(Rogue 111)
(Refer to figure 40.) What would be the total enroute time and fuel consumed from BGS to ABI on V16 at a true airspeed of 125 knots if the average fuel consumption is 12 GPH? Wind 090/15
45 minutes and 8.9 gallons.
BGS 45
(Refer to figure 53.) Calculate the time and fuel burn for an IFR flight from San Marcus (RZS) VORTAC to Paso Robles (PRB) VORTAC on V25 with the following conditions. TAS 120 kts, Altitude 8,000 feet MSL, Reported winds 070/25, Fuel burn rate 12 GPH
38 minutes, 7.7 gallons.
(Pas 38)

41 minutes and 12 gallons.
HEL ON 41st Street
(Refer to figure 24.) ATC has issued an amended clearance as follows. ‘Cleared DVC V68 MTJ V26 MEYRS.’ Calculate the fuel required to fly the amended route. True Airspeed: 140 knots, Average Fuel Consumption: 17 GPH, Winds: 275/40.
9.5 gallons.
(My 9)
(Refer to figure 40.) What would be the total fuel consumed if ATC has cleared you on a route of TQS V94 HYMAN V76 BGS if the average fuel consumption is 16.5 GPH? True Airspeed: 145 knots, Winds: 230/30
12.6 gallons.
Fuel Hy 12
(Refer to Figure 78.) Calculate the total fuel required from BIL TO HLN via V2. Wings are 210 at 30 knots with a true airspeed of 120 knots, and 15.5 GHP fuel burn.
23.9 gallons
FUEL BIL TO HLN: 23.9
