Fuel Management
Hi Dave...congrats on the P337 purchase. Because of a past situation , I will never let a line guy fuel my airplane. I take my time and fuel slowly to the brim. Just remember, many a fine pilot have run a skymaster out of fuel. I have a shadden, and I love it, but time is always been my overriding factor. With 5 1/2 hours of fuel, I never push any legs past the 3 to 3 1/2 hour mark. Yes, when you are fat, dumb, and happy up in the upper teens in your pressurized beast (god, I love skymasters), it will be hard to let her back down. JIM

I also like to keep my legs to under 4 hours. But sometimes you can't (Miami to Boise RT, Virgin Islands to Miami) and these precautions pay off.
