Flying SC to FL. Does Lean Of Peak Really Save Fuel?

  • Опубліковано 16 лис 2024
  • Flying from Spartanburg, South Carolina to St Augustine, Florida. We compare the fuel burn and speed from rich of peak to lean of peak and calculate the fuel burn down to nautical miles per gallon to see if there really is a savings and what that savings is.

    Kim. All those caffeine boosters will also raise your blood pressure to dangerous levels especially if you take them everyday. Have you measured your blood pressure while you're on these things? I know this from experience because taking energy drinks everyday wrecked my blood pressure permanently. I don't drink caffeine anymore but I still deal with high blood pressure after effects

    Charles Lindbergh figured out how to extend the range of the P-38 Lightning by experimenting with the prop, power, and fuel mixture settings. Just as you are demonstrating here. His discovery of better settings helped with the utilization of the P-38 during ww2. Initially there was a lot of opposition to trying this. The mindset was that it was thought that there was only one set of setting that would work. Anything else would destroy the engines. Well Lindbergh was correct. This was one of his major contributions to the war effort.

    Oh and Kristoffer (Mr. Kristoffer) I should say! When will Miss Kim start her multiengine (considering that that`s in her plans of course)? And considering I should ask Miss directely but I don`t dare to. I say that it would be interesting to see her getting her multi (and even I.R) so you could relax a bit and let the ldy take control of 75W. Greetings from Portugal.

    It's not that much change if you take in account you lost 15kts, your total flight time would be more so you'll burn fuel longer which will eat into the savings.

    • @BaronPilot
      @BaronPilot  Місяць тому +2

      I agree there is a cost per hour on the engines that need to be factored in when calculating savings. That’s why I made reference to additional range rather than savings.

      @@BaronPilotAnd reported a much higher rate of cataracts even after wearing those cool sunglasses all those years. This was due to the fact that the earlier sunglasses blocked out bright light but not so much the UV like modern lenses do. It will be interesting to see if the rate reverts to normal over the years. I knew one old Vietnam era pilot who flew as a Captain for Eastern for many years. He had basal cell carcinoma on his left arm and developed a cataract is his left eye a few years before his right got bad.

    • @BaronPilot
      @BaronPilot  Місяць тому +3

      I’ve debated this in a previous video. I prefer to clean up the plane and increase my speed margin from VMC. Once the engine quits my priority is survival. So if I can fly I will. If I need to land straight ahead with the gear up I will. But I believe if you climb to 100’ and chop the power and land straight ahead (only try this on a 10,000’ runway the first time) you will find you used way more runway than you thought you would.

    just the other day I learned that there was a bonanza twin in 1950 and baron replaced it in 1960. the baron is actually the more true twin because it shares cabin with the bonanza, the twin bonanza was bigger. ironic. if you ever get tired of paying the money pit bills on the baron, I highly recommend the hard to get in USA Risen. Either 912 or 915 version. For safety I'd pit a good new LSA with chute over post WW2 piston twin any day. And flights might literally be 10x cheaper. 4 inches wider cabin too. Better visibility, probably need a sunshield. Can be full instrument with a GTN. If Beechcraft ever makes a modern Baron you can go back. Kim might love to fly it, I'm just saying :)
