WR-07 is the special "Lowest Fuel Consumption" Flight. A pilot's performance will be judged solely on the pounds of fuel consumed from the beginning of the takeoff roll at Vancouver to a full stop at the end of the landing roll at Princeton.

Thus, a total of 550 lbs of fuel consumed is ranked higher than a total of 600 lbs of fuel consumed.

In the event of a tie for this special flight the minutes will be the tie breaker, lowest being best.

Note: The descent phase of WR-07 occurs while flying IFR in a holding pattern. If you wish to brush up on holding patterns, try this website:

Rules:

1) The routing of the flight must conform to the information published with this flight. You may choose altitudes that you feel are optimum, within the following guidelines:

a) Most of this flight is VFR, but a portion of it is IFR. The flight must adhere to those portions of the FAA rules summarized in the WR NOTAMs page.

b) Specifically this pertains to altitudes vs. the course direction, sometimes referred to as the hemispherical rule.

2) Carry the amount of fuel that you deem appropriate. However, a minimum of 30 minutes of fuel must remain in your tanks on landing. That amount of fuel is based on a NORMAL cruise speed. Forty-Seven gallons of fuel, or 282 lbs is a good middle-of-the-road figure for this reserve. (Special permission for this flight, we'll not use the IFR Fuel Reserve formulas.)

3) Please include on your PIREP both the time of the flight in minutes and pounds of fuel used.

4) Enjoy this special challenge.
