Wrong Specific Gravity used for MOGAS Mogas 80/90

Hi,

as I noted in another thread (Aircraft Profiles) you calculate the Mogas weight by using 0,75kg/l which is wrong. The acceptable Standard for 80/90 Octane Mogas is 0,72 kg/l. This gives a diffrence of some kg in your W/B calculation.

Can you please correct this in a new release ??

Well, what can I say. It is what it is, whether it's in the POH or not. I think it has legal ramifications, though. When you use the POH value your a** is covered if you use it...whether it's right or not.
