About one-half ounce per minute. So on an 8 ounce tanks you can fly for 15 minutes.

I usually figure about 12 minutes with some reserve on an 8oz tank. The high-speed needle can usually be set rich and destroy the flight time. If you are concerned it is easy to bench mount the engine and measure the time on a tank of fuel.
