I'm sure it's a heck of a nice airplane, and I'd like to know what it took to convert the flaps to manual. I do know it is impossible to propel Birdie through the air at 145 mph in level flight at normal cruise altitude using only 8 gph...and she's about as clean (aerodinamiclly) as a 150 gets. Maybe he's talking about flying up where you need Oxygen or something?
