Note a book but...
http://www.risingup.com/planespecs/ Just remember (as has been noted here on past occasions) that the data in this webpage is often laughably inaccurate. The page on the Pathfinder, for example, lists a "62 gallon" fuel capacity. The correct answer is either 50 (without tip tanks; although I don't believe any were built *without* tip tanks, but I could be wrong) or 84 gallons with tip tanks. When they get basic stuff like that wrong, I tend to lose faith in the rest of the data. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I believe it is 39 with 1.5 unusable each wing. -- Regards, Ross C-172F 180HP KSWI |
