than 5 US gallons an hour!
It has excellent short field capabilities and does not have any unpleasant
vices. What more could you ask.
The only difficulty is that you have to be a real pilot as it is a
taildragger! grin

I like that Murphy Rebel alot and have been looking at it but I wanted something which can get into my 300 foot by 600 foot piece of property on the 300 foot side of it and although it can get out of a 300 foot strip without obstructions on either end I fear the landing overrun I would probably face.
How quick can you get off the ground with a 300 pound pilot and half fuel?
