145mph cruise at 8 gph,


With a climb prop no less? Some day I am just going to have to find out how to get these fantastic numbers outta Mr. Ed! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> [/quote]

You may be able to do it at around 11,000' to 12,000'. The SportHawk will get up to 142 at 11,500 and most likely around 8 gph. The question to ask him is what is the RPM? 2900 RPM?
