RE: G-62 rate of fuel burn?
To be on the safe side I would not fly it longer than 10-15 minutes. I have a giant stinger with a DL-50 on it and use a 16oz tank and fly about 10 minutes and when I land there is still some gas left in the tank.

It all depends on how you plan to fly the plane. A G-62 at full throttle consumes 2 oz/min. You could fly full throttle for 10 min on a 20 oz tank

Mine burns 2.2 oz per min in a Ziroli Corsair. Documented on over 400 flights. Fuel consumption is on my check list. Throttled back it is much better but this warbird needs full throttle most of the time.
