C 170B climb fuel burn chart ??

Post by dj2790 »

I have seen plenty of cruise charts depicting fuel burn and different RPM's, but have never seen a chart depicting fuel burn in a climb. Does anyone know if there is one? It would be helpful in predicting total fuel burn for any given flight. Thanks in advance.

I don't know if there's a copy in the library, but I have a small booklet from Continental with a "Propeller Load Chart" that plots HP and specific fuel consumption at wide open throttle against RPM.

O-300 Operator's Manual is found in the "Engine Compartment" section of the Library.
