I am also starting a career at Midway. I am trying FOTR 1.3 as patched to 1.5

I ask because yesterday I tried TMO +RSRD +some othr small mods and was given Luzon Straits to patrol for 72 hours, again from Midway start.
But using Ahead 2/3, I had used almost 3/4 of my fuel and still hadn't reached the Straits. I was nearly 1.000 mile away.
Trying with Ahead Full is even worse, almost empty and still not near patrol area.

Thank You
Hi Steinbeck,

The optimum cruising speed to reach your patrol zone and return to base is Ahead Standard.
That's the most balanced speed setting for mile coverage and fuel consumption.

Regards,
Billy.
