Default RE: does fuel choice effect flight time?

And are you sure that the tank is really dry after your 11 or 12 minutes of flight? Can you see the tank and verify that it is indeed run dry? Or are you just assuming it is empty because no more fuel comes out the carburetor line? One common situation is that the clunk gets stuck somewhere inside the tank and you think you have run out of fuel, but really there is still some left.
