Quote: We did one at UND. I'm pretty sure that is what most of these are. Why go find primary source information for yourself when you can just ask someone and take their word for it?

I think Juice's numbers are way off. 500nm leg?

1) Fuel Burn = 8200 deciliters
2) Flight Time (No Wind) = 39 mins
3) BFL, Hot & High (5000' 30C MTOW) = 10,000 feet, assuming dry pavement and it's not a weekday.

/sarcasm
These shoot-from-the-hip numbers are useless, but thanks for the effort. I specifically asked for hard numbers from the manual and offered to compensate for the effort. It seems that it would be logical to conclude that a forum full of starving airline pilots with easy access to this information would be a good place to save some money on this info. However, I obviously failed to account for the arrogance among this group when I reached this conclusion. I will buy a manual. Enjoy your Ramen Noodles.
