Oil Requirements:
If you add oil, please make a note of it in the front of the log
book. The 172 should be at 7 quarts: add if at 6 or below.
N9407Z holds 8 quarts of oil.
Fueling Requirements implemented Feb 2009:
172 - Use the dip stick to note fuel quantity
before and after each flight. Unless receiving a notice from a pilot
concerning fuel requirements for the next flight, refuel N9407Z to
20 gallons in each tank (40 total) if it has less than 30 gallons at
the conclusion of your flight. If it has 30 or more gallons, do not
refuel. Mark the fuel quantity in the log book.
Rationale: At a minimum each plane would have
three hours of fuel with these changes and we should save some fuel
expense by not carrying as much excess fuel on most every flight. A
heavier plane uses more fuel for most operations. It also makes it
easier to plan for a possible four passenger load. Anyone wanting
special fueling for their flight should leave instructions with the
log book and contact the previous pilot. This is especially
important when you want minimum fueling to carry a specific load.
