Converting pounds to liters

What works best I find is simply Multiply needed pounds by 0.57

Thus 5000 x 0.57 = 2850 liters

For liters back to pounds, divide by 0.57

Thus 2850/0.57 = 5000 lbs


Hope this helps.

ZAZOO,

Very thoughtful write-up and a good tribute to a fine and worthy aviator. You talk of him in the past tense. I hope he's not passed on. That would be a damn shame.
