Hardy practical.

He said it has about an hour of normal flight. If running wide open, 18
minutes.

That means to have a legal 30 minute reserve, he can only fly for 30 minutes
in cruise, and 9 minutes wide open.

Let me know when they have a combination that can cruise for 4 hours at 65%
power.

That will be when the orders start coming in. Until then, it's all
publicity stunt.
