I've been getting surprisingly good fuel performance from my 182. I'm wondering if you guys are getting similar results or if there may actually be some issue.
I tend to pull back while cruising because I'm typically sight seeing. I cruise at 18" and 2300 RPM. I'm taking off at 5-6k DA and cruising between 7-11k feet MSL.
I hand calculated 9.0GPH and 11.2MPG (statute miles). I feel like that's pretty good for the average track log speed of 135MPH. This is in a stock 1963 182F without wheel pants or any mods.
