I flew the 66 Sydney to gold coast and back smooth cumfortable and roomy sat on 125-135 kts. Airspeed and smooth as. Used 80 ltr hr up and 81 lt hr home
OAX:

how many aboard? These numbers seem a bit off to me.

w/ 4 aboard i cant get over 120 kts (nil wind) and the torque would be at about 78%, bringing the fuel flow at about 95 lts/hour. Normally i fly at 72% TQ that gives me 110kts 85lts hour.

Cheers
