I just realized that my Skylane gets about the same gas mileage as a Hummer. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		 
		
	
	
	I burn about 13gal per hour and go about 130 knots... 10nm per gallon, or 11.5 miles per gallon. Now granted I am going in a straight line, and 3 times as fast, but still that is awful mileage. Now my old Cessna 140 did a lot better, 105mph at 5gph... more like about 20 miles per gallon. Can anyone boast better mileage?  |
