Guest snake030 Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 So I was reading through my copy of the T-34 limitations, and it says that normal operation burns 335 lbs/hr. Holy hell, that seems like a lot! Is this thing right, or do I have bad info? What is normal fuel flow on some other airframes? Also, if this info is wrong, does anyone know where I can get some good info on the T-34? Thanks a million!
Rocker Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 6000 lbs an hour low level for a Herk. 335 doesn't sound too unbelieveable.
mmkk111 Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 It's been a while since I flew the turbo-weenie, but that sounds about right. Is that gouge, or out of the NATOPS? The C-21 burns about 1700-1800 lbs/hr on average.
Guest snake030 Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 I think I found it in gouge, it doesn't look like anything official.
BONE Co-driver Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 Max AB during low level or at T/O 290,000 - 325,000 lbs/hr. Normal flight is between 16,000 - 22,000 lbs/hr depending on GW.
mmkk111 Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 Check over at www.airwarriors.com. They should have the info you're looking for. 290,000-325,000 lbs! That's just plain ludicrous [ 06. September 2006, 16:34: Message edited by: mmkk111 ]
El Duderino Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 FNG, 335 per hour is correct for max power in the T-34, 125 lb/hr at idle. If you have anymore questions about the T-34 feel free to ask but do it quick. I had my last flight last night and am in the process of performing a beer assisted brain dump. Dude
Chuck17 Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 For the 17 we figure on 20K the first hour, 15-18K after that. Chuck
HerkDerka Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Originally posted by The_FNG: and it says that normal operation burns 335 lbs/hr. Holy hell, that seems like a lot! It depends on how much gas your plane holds. I've never flown the turbo weenie so I have no clue. But compared to planes like the Tweet, that burn rate is awesome. Originally posted by BONE Co-driver: Max AB during low level or at T/O 290,000 - 325,000 lbs/hr. Hell yeah! Take that taxpayers! HD [ 06. September 2006, 19:39: Message edited by: HerkDerka ]
NUKE Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 3000 pph on the mighty T-39N on a low level, about 2200 pph at altitude
CrateOfThunder Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 FNG, That is correct...verify with Chapter four in NATOPS for any further limitations questions
LT4Life Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 Search function for T-34 comes up with a lot of info on the ol Turbomentor. A good website for T-1/T-34 suff is www.dansdiversion.com
