VAN's RV-7A
(fabric demo airplane)
The airplane is a 2
seat aluminum aircraft, capable of acrobatic maneuvers, and be ideal
for short airfield/soft airfield operations.
Still, this
aircraft would be able for a 300km/h cruse speed, or an economic
cruse around 265 km/h whit a ca. 28 liter/hour fuel burn.
On auto fuel, whit
back paying of petrol tax, should be around 168,- dkk pr. hour in
265km/h cruse.
That I would say
is a good balance for money and performance.
A rental,
Cessna 172, whit a 210km/h
max cruse speed, cost me 900,- dkk pr. hour. (fuel and all included.)
I therefore think
I can use those money in pay down on my own airplane instead :-).
(Or simply enjoy a
lot more flying....)
