I don't think military jets to homebuilts is a fair comparison. How many
military jets do you know that fly at 200 mph at 8 gph?


Constraints aside, his point is still valid. Changes need to be made to
some designs, to make better control harmony, or stall characteristics, or
whatever, but are not made. Why not? Too much money, more time, or lack of
expertise in knowing what to change. In most cases, it would have little to
no difference in "speed per gallon."
