Jeff,

What are you flying? How many degrees rich of peak do you fly? 150 TAS on 11
gph is pretty good performance.

This is just a question, but is gas prices there that big a difference

where you
can save 100$ by going to smaller airports?

Personally, in my plane, I have 72 gallons of fuel, flight plan 150 TAS,

usually
fly 5 hours, that gives me about 1.5 hours left. But I also have a fuel

flow
instrument that shows me my endurance and GPH. I make the least number of

stops I
can. Flew a 1445 NM trip, one way, on july 4th, stopped 3 times, longest

leg was
680 nm.
