Hi there,

I was wondering about the fuel consuption that is statet in the airplane list. What does it actuall mean?

Is it gallons per 100 miles, per hour, for a flight with the maximum range? anyone got an idea?

there are no "standard fuel consumption"...
A plane uses less fuel in an approach and uses more in a climb...

The fuel consumption in AM is measured by Gal/hr, but its generated by a formula.

The formula and data are based on real world figures which were given to AM. If you have any specific examples that you know are wrong, please email the correct data (And source) to  :staff: and we will take a look into it.
