yep as with any vehicle you have to find your range, especially if you intend to
tour and in less inhabited areas. 68ltrs is not a huge tank at 17ltrs per hour.
Even in Scotland its quite hard to find fuel. I thought I had fuel for 3:45,
but I was down to 11 ltrs after 3:10. I thought I would average 115kts but
with a stop and taxi etc it was 102kts.
I am also cautious though and had 20ltrs in a can in case I had to 'put down'
somewhere.
On the prop stopping, I am sure that on one of the promo videos they stop and
start
the engine - as if we should all be doing it!
very interesting that it can be started at 100kts.
