If she wore a stewardess uniform, you could play 'Passenger in 5A would like

Many years ago I made part of a flight of three from Marsh Harbour, Abaco,
Bahamas, to Ft. Pierce, FL. A normally aspirated C-210, a turbocharged T-210
and a Turbo Aztec.

We all landed with no more than 3-4 minutes between the first arrival and the
last. The fuel consumption though... it was telling.

C-210 19.5 gallons
T-210 26.0 gallons
Turbo Aztec 59.0 gallons.

That was an expensive flight for somebody.

Figuring that 100LL was well below $2 gallon back then (whenever that
was) $100+/- for fuel isn't too bad - That same flight would run
almost $300 nowadays. BTW, didn't the turbo Aztrucks have the ability
to take the turbos offline and run normally aspirated? That'd help the
fuel burn a bit...

Try that out here.

Sure, you could mnake it in a NA'ed aircraft....
