Think this might have an effect on the number of hours I fly and the resale
value of light aircraft used for pleasure?

C182 150mph @ 12gph = .30/mile fuel cost.

Then the value of my Bonanza just went up. If I want to fly at 150 MPH
that's 19 inches and 2000 rpm for a total of 9 GPH. Gas currently at $2.75.

I bought mine to fly and go places. It's at 24 X 24 @ 190 MPH on 14
GPH except when landing and taking off.
