Smackhawk,
Yeah, nearly 2 tonne of fuel will do that for you

. Maybe finally someone will realise that this very capable aircraft could work. And before B71 launches off again, I do acknowledge that it was a rather expensive buy, however we have them now and there are a lot of very dedicated people

trying to get the most out of this for the Aussie taxpayer.
I also heard lots of action with MRH's about to take place at sea as well
