Lear 55 numbers

Hey guys,

Looks like I may be flying the 55 soon and I had erased my hourly fuel burns off of FLTPLAN com. Could anyone share their hourly fuel burns on the 55 please. Thanks.

Used to fly one, but I forgot. I know it'll be fairly close to the 35, because it's the same engines, just rated up 200 pounds of thrust per side, so I'd guess somewhere around 1600 first hour, 1200 second hour, 1100 third hour, etc.

Don't bank on that though, it's been 4 years since I've been in one. I do remember how much of a runway hog it was though! If you lose an engine in that thing, you'd better have an interstate in front of you!
