What other plane does 160 knots on 10gal/hr?

Not the Mooney C model unless there is a good tailwind and running 2300 RPM.


The individual that wrote the above was discussing a 'J' model Mooney. A
'J' model will run 160 kts on 10 GPH at 2500 RPM. I get 147 kts on less
than 9 GPH at 2500 in my lowly, stock 'C' model.
