Ok, so here are my latest observations on the oil consumption. I’m flying my first world circumnavigation with this brilliant airplane. I’ve done 8 legs till now (141nm shortest - 283nm longest) from Cologne (EDDK) to Agidir (GMAD). I didn’t have ANY problems with the engines till now, everything went fine, when staying “inside the numbers”.
BUT on two of my legs my oil consumption was 90-95%!!! (Screenshot is made after my last 8th leg - 224nm)
This happened on my 5th and 8th leg. All other legs were fine (max consumption was like 30%)!
Oil temperature, oil pressure, manifold pressure, RPM and everything was in balance, but after landing almost all of the oil was used in the mentioned legs. I always top up everything before start. I still don’t know why this happens.
wish you happy flying!
