R44 fuel consumption

Apologies Helihog:

Not sure hot and hi what that has to do with a thread on m/r blades...
Inside this thread the R44's fuel consumption was discussed a few days ago in various posts between 4 and 7 Feb 2015. I was responding to one of the posts in this thread where members gave their opinion about R44 fuel consumption being 75 lt / hr. (https://www.pprune.org/showthread.php?p=8852947)

I thought it would be useful to give 'actuals' from somebody who has operated this a/c type for over 10 years.

I clicked the "respond" button directly inside this post, I didn't realise that our Forum software doesn't automatically reference the post that I am responding to.

As you can see I have only started posting recently, so please bear with me. I also only just now figured out how to 'properly' quote somebody, so that the quoted text appears in a nice blue box .
