  • You should check visually inside the tanks. When you know how much fuel you have and how much you are burning per hour then you can work it out. I flew a C152 and one guage showed full and the other guage showed 1/4. Because I knew both tanks were full, I knew that one of the guages was faulty.

  • Expert village? More like the village idiot.

  • It's you're groundspeed which determines youre flight time isnt it?

  • @dlsiks hmmm well down here in the states, the faa only mandates that they show empty when the tanks are actually empty. nothing says the guage has to read accurately at any other time, so they could legally read empty at any other time as well, even when full. so i can understand why he would be skeptical of the guages.

  • He doesnt make a good example as a cfi for students. He takesoff with a tailwind and takes his hand off the throttle below a safe altitude, not safe. He doesnt even mention checking his engine instruments and airspeed on takeoff.

  • this 'hippy' doesn't have someone firing surface to air missiles at him however. which is never what you want after your cereal right?

  • @iceman050890 yea join the navy land on a flight deck then your top gun.with a job when you get out

  • if you want the best jion the navy and land on a flight deck..screw these hippes like this guy.
