Nice Video man! Couple questions: 1. How do you set your mixture? 2. What is your typical speed (indicated) & fuel burn? 3. What mixture setting position do you use at cruise (they are numbered)?
We have owed 2 Cessna 310's and flew them for 25 years so I can answer this for ya :) 1-Mixture, those are the red levers far right. On takeoff they are pushed full forward which is max rich. In flight you adjust to get best fuel burn. 2-In our 1969 310P we could run 20 Gallons per hour (10 ea side) and true out at 175 knots give or take (these are 200 mph airplanes all day long) 3-Right mixture control is for the right engine & left for left. These are non turbo specs on speed and fuel burn by the way. The Cessna 310 is the biggest bang for the buck on the market at this time hands down. We are based in Seattle and have flown as far as the Bahamas and that was in our 1955 310. They are so very capable , a mini airliner no doubt.
