Hello Jet-Fans

Well I finally flew my Y/A A4 skyhawk last Sunday after weeks of chickening out and poor excuses.
Took off in less than 100 ft (40 m ) with a bit tail heavy and manual throw set-up. Luckily the JF Bee 50 turbine rocketed the plane like the space shuttle. After my fingers calmed down the skyhawk flew like a dream and very fast ( wowwed everyone at the field.)
Landing at 30 degree flaps was surprisingly as good if not better than my EuroSports.

Question.
With 44 oz fully fuel ( 2x 12 oz saddle and 1x 30 oz dubro tank ) not including a BVM Uat, I landed the plane at 5 min with no more than 1 more go around of fuel left.

The manufacture state a 4-6 oz / min fuel consumption , Is this at full throttle setting???????

I calculated a 8-9 minutes flight time at about half throttle. Is my calculation wrong or am I missing something????????

Guys Heeeelp!!!!!!
