Do you keep track of the ratio of engine_on:engine_off flight hours in a spreadsheet? Both per flight and running average. Interesting to see trends I bet. It's interesting to see the Total_time vs. Engine_hours in the ads for used TMG. |

It's interesting to see the Total_time vs. Engine_hours in the ads for used TMG. No, I don't keep a spreadsheet. This flight was 7 hours and I ran the motor 1.8 hours including warm up, taxiing, takeoff and climb out, a few minutes at the end of the day as I landed and taxied back to my hangar, and about 1 hour was for "self retrieve." The flight to Jacumba and Big Bear was 5.5 hours total with about .7 hours on the engine with no self retrieve. |
