JE,
Stingers A109 Power fuel consumption figures are about right.
220Kg/hr (with air con on) i.e. 110kg/hr per engine
200-210kg/hr without air con on!
Vne = 160-162kn with cruise somewhere around 135-140kn
Max weight 2850kg
Full fuel and 3 pax is within limits, but more pax means less fuel.....
Italian Helicopters just like Italian bikes - lovely to look at, great to drive, but the build quality is sometimes a little worrying - heard of a couple of A109 Powers (one an elite) having such thin paint jobs that you could see the primer through the top coat....
