Haven't really been tracking the fuel burn yet... still trying to be creative with the 25 mi teather until the 40 hr phase 1 runs out. Lots of short runs around the area.  Now taking bags of salt with me to simulate passengers!

Loving the Family Guy theme! :D

I'm happy with my 750 but probably would have went with the Cruzer had it been available when I bought.  95 mph is a decent cruise... I'm only getting about 80, hoping for 90 when I re-pitch the prop. Might try taking off the Slats as well, they're not really useful when I have a 2200' runway, but I would miss the "cool" factor... the slats always start a conversation!  LOL  

What kind of fuel burn are you getting Jon?  I get 5.8 g/hr (5.1 gph when leaned out) with my O-235!

She flies great! Cruise about 95 mph..you will get higher speed with a more powerful engine and some wheel pants I'm sure... but I am happy!
