Estimated flight time
[Example]
Obtain the estimated flight time when the rate of fuel consumption is 200
gallons
per hour and the aircraft has 1400 gallons of fuel.
[Operation]
Align 20 on the outer scale with the SPEED INDEX (MPH) on the inner scale.
Then, 14 on the outer scale corresponds to "7:00" on the inner scale (time
scale). Thus, the estimated flight time is 7 hours.
Distance
[Example]
Convert 45 miles into nautical miles and kilometers.
[Operation]
Align 45 on the outer scale with STAT on the inner scale.
Then, NAUT on the inner scale corresponds to about 39 nautical miles
on the outer scale, and KM on the inner scale corresponds to about
72 km on the outer scale.
Weight
[Example]
Convert 16.4 oil lbs. into U.S. gallons and IMP. gallons and liters.
[Operation]
Align 16.4 on the inner scale with OIL LBS on the outer scale.
Then, U.S. GAL on the outer scale corresponds to about 2.2 U.S. gallons
on the inner scale, and IMP. GAL on the outer scale corresponds to about
1.8 IMP. gallons on the inner scale, and LITERS on the outer scale
99
corresponds to about 8.3 liters on the inner scale.
