I always worked it as

I think it works out as full tanks of 50 gallons, with around 45 gallons usable of that. Burn rate of 9 US gallons/hour means an endurance of 5 hours @ 100kts which is around 500NM or 575Miles (not for operational usage)

Although, if it were me, that would be pushing it way more than I'd want to
