Michelle,

I was trying to be funny. What I was kidding you about is that the tailwind
probably didn't help you get to 6 hours. Maybe helped you go further in that
time, but as far as I know, the engine doesn't know if it is flying in a
tailwind or a headwind.

Brad,
I have done it because it can. I plan for 15 Gal/hour and it flies about
12.5 gal/hour according to the Shadin Fuel Flow. I still had 10 gallons
left upon landing. about 45 minutes. I like to have an hour in the tank
when I land. I have pushed it to 45 minutes if necessary.

. I have run the aircraft for 6 hours strait


without stopping with a favorable tail wind.



I'm glad I didn't say that. And in THIS group, boy are you going to get
it.
You better brace yourself!
