ZhomeguyI've got 55 gallons useable. I can lean her back at altitude say 8500 to 10500 at maybe 12.5 gallons an hour since I've got a 6 cyl engine analyzer..but in all honesty 90% time I'm running 14 gallons an hour..Though I fly professionally, in this thing a 3 hour butt is more than enough! I've gone deep into Idaho on occasion with 10 gallons in the back and can still have local fun..I gain a huge performance increase for this airframe, which to me is a big safety factor.
Who here has a sling rear seat in their C-180/185, and who manufactured it? Are they still available to anyone's knowledge or is it getting to be
a field approval only item? Been searching for one out...
Planning on attending, not sure If I will be competing, depends If I get enough practice and and I feel like embarrassing myself, If so Heavy Touring class in my 180...lookn fwd to seeing everyone.
