I know a nice little non-equity 182 which ain't doing much at the moment, about 39 hours to go before check, Wet or dry, burns about 53 lph, dependable old O-470. GPS, A/P good in heading mode, non-Mode S, no frills, does the job. 20 hours is more than it would be doing here...

Last time I came back from Skåvsta I routed Malmö - Groningen - Calais - Hampshire, which was all very GA friendly, low-level over NL (...not difficult!), piece of cake, a good day's flying.
