Looking for some help with question or two for the new Mustang drivers out there. Have been sent all the relevant info from Cessna with their published range circles in Europe, but there al based on it being a lovely day and somehow flying at max weight at FL410, when according to their figures you can't climb directly to 410 at MTOW?

Anyway, would anybody be able to give me some realistic experience figures for the longest ranges you have managed, be it comfortably done or not as the case may be.
And if you can tell, how have ATC in the different countries been in accepting you at the higher flight levels, do they allow it or not?

Many Thanks,

S.C. :ok:

Very Fancy but ties in directly to the figures as given by Cessna, i've been doing the sums taking into account headwind components, route factoring and fuel factoring for cruising alt's of around FL330 and came up with something like this out of LCY:

GPS Visualizer: Google Maps output (http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/map?lat1=&lon1=&location=lcy&radius=622NM%2C+708NM%2C+780NM%2C+815NM%2C+&format=google&radius_segments=)

Range circles for 1 to 4 pax and 2 crew on each, would anyone agree or like to completly correct me and insult my doodling?

That range map could be fairly accurate, mate told me the other day that they had to tech stop to get to Malaga. That was out of one of the London airports.

Thanks for the info G-Spots, just trying to get as much accurate info on this little one as I can. Especially if they ask me to fly this too.

Many Thanks,
