Great Info mate. I’ve just started in the C310 and love it. How do you bring up the Foreflight on your video, does your iPad record the flight and you cut the bits out you want?
Cheers! Check out my preflight procedures video here: ruclips.net/video/Rxmyrwj40mI/видео.html To capture my iPad video I use Record it! app. It’s easy to use and low cost. Hope you like the videos and subscribe to the channel.
Thx for the compliment! Gives me good energy to make more videos. Regarding the fuel consumption, it depends on a number of factors (e.g. leaning rich or lean of peak, power setting, altitude, etc.). With stock engines, the C310Q manual notes a combined 26.5 GPH burn @ 71% power when flying at 7,500 ft based on standard conditions (32 degrees F, no win). Note - Manifold is at 22", RPM is at 2,450 and TAS 214 mph, gross weight of 5,300 lbs. This plane has an engine upgrade to the Continental IO-550E which increases typical fuel burn to about 32 GPH when leaned 50 degrees rich of peak. More general details on the conversion here (www.mikejonesaircraft.com/executive_II.htm).
Hi Victor! On a cross country flight like this one, I like to switch to the aux tanks as soon as I can (typically 45 min into the flight) and run them empty. Why? 1) I need to wait 45 min so there is fuel emptied from the main tanks as the excess fuel from the aux tanks is fed back into the main tanks. 2) In the event of an engine failure and the need to cross feed to maintain general weight balance, you cannot cross feed from the aux tanks - only the main tanks. Thus, the fuel in the aux tank on the side of the failed engine is no good to me (about 45 min worth for 20 gal at cruise). Hope this answers your question.
I like your use of all available runway when lining up. It’s my practice as well but not as common as I once thought.
Thx Scott! With a twin every foot counts, particularly if there is an emergency. Hope you enjoyed the video, liked and subscribed.

Loved how detailed the video was. How many gallons an hour does a 310 usually burn?

@@BetweenLayersAviation Wow.. 214 TAS is pretty impressive. Can't wait for more content. Keep it up!!
The aux tanks runs empty before come back to mains?

What are the performance numbers on the 310 with 520 engines? Say at 65% power. Thank you!
Is that 400 ap
It is a 400A navomatic. Old but still works!
Nice, but no landing...?
This was part 1 of the flight. Check out Part 2 here: ruclips.net/video/lHoswc2oV58/видео.html
