Group,

Does anybody have any experience with the Hacman Gen 3 Mixture Control 
on their 912 or 912S please?

Reason is that I am astounded how much more fuel my 912 (80 HP) burns at 
altitude than when low down. eg. At altitude where the MAP is say 20" 
at wide open throttle and 5000 rpm, the fuel flow is 17-18 LPH while on 
the same power setting (20" and 5000 rpm) at 2500 ft, the fuel flow is 
12-13 LPH. I have discovered that at altitude with WOT, if I throttle 
back until the MAP "just" starts to drop, the fuel flow will drop back 
approx 1 LPH.

If the Hacman unit works, I am interested in procuring one.

Many thanks

Kingsley from Oz
