Default Maule has no performance?

Michelle:

I also have a M-7-235B, 2005. I get about 15gph with 2300/23 typically around 3,000' mostly short trips. This gives me an IAS of 125k with -7degrees flaps.

Of course, I'm looking at waysd to try and get better than 15gph. What settings are you typically using?

Thanks, Garry

Brad,
I have done it because it can. I plan for 15 Gal/hour and it flies about
12.5 gal/hour according to the Shadin Fuel Flow. I still had 10 gallons
left upon landing. about 45 minutes. I like to have an hour in the tank
when I land. I have pushed it to 45 minutes if necessary.

I'm glad I didn't say that. And in THIS group, boy are you going to get it.
You better brace yourself!
