For those that are flying after 40 hours I am using 1 quart every 7 hours.
Is this to much? I know what the manual says but if one went by that you
would have to take spare oil on every flight!

You're doing just fine. 7-10 hours per quart is normal.
Mine uses the normal as long as I don't fill it past 9 qts, otherwise it blows it out.
If it's a new engine, don't forget to start taking oil samples at every oil change once you get past 100 hours.
