irm750 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Sounds perfect! Interested in how you get that kind of duration? Have started a seperate thread. Cheers, Ian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyfreefly Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 He manages to get that sort of flight duration by landing on the outward leg........then blagging some fuel that was by rights going to be put in a microlight.. ....and returns with that....... nuff said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike1714 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 My PAP with ROS 125 and current Nemo wing combo gets me about 19 miles in about an 50-60 minutes with 3.45-4 litres of fuel.......................so 60 miles on 13 litres sounds a feasable autonomy range ? Of cotse all subject to wind and direct etc etc............ Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
