Aviation fuel. In the past, they could run on 80LL or 100LL. 80LL is no longer available. Unleaded avgas types, such as 93UL, 94UL, 100LL, 102LL, etc. are still undergoing certification.
Most small engine aircraft such as Cessna's use a low leaded gas, usually blue in colour. But a lot of Cessna's can be converted to use regular gas that you would use in a car.
The only ones I know of have a diesel engine, there are none in production and there is no STC yet, but there are some experimentals that have them.
They run on 100LL avgas. It has a different price at every airport. Go to http://www.airnav.com, click on "Airports" then enter the name of the airport you want to use to learn the cost of fuel there.
Avgas 100LL
If you use a f/a-18 about 10 seconds if you use a cessna 172 about 10 months
The Cessna 182 will use 11-12.5 gallons per hour.
it depends on what type of aircraft your flying, the runway length, and the weather. here are two common aircraft flap settings for standard takeoff use: Boeing 737: set flaps to 5 cessna 172: set flaps to 10 these are two common flap settings for the Boeing 737 and cessna 172. remember, different aircraft have differnet flap settings based on weather and runway length.
They use about 8 gallons per hour in cruise flight.
A direct drive engine arragement is one where the crankshaft, to which the pistons of the engine are connected, is directly connected to the propeller. Non-direct drive engines use a gearbox, usually a reduction gearbox, to make the propeller spin at a RPM lower than the engine's. In case of the Cessna 172, the rotational speed of the propeller (2 blade, hartzell) is the same as the engine's.
I have the Pilots Operating Handbook from the Cessna company and it gives a range of 70-80KIAS which is the inside reading in Knots (not Miles per hour) on your Airspeed indicator.I have flown with 78 more precisely an most instructors will tell you to use 78KIAS because it is the best rate.
none, small planes dont use hydraulics, the controls are connected via steel cable
yes it type of fuel
