We did a flight recently where I swapped the Husky out for a J3 on two legs.
The following are approximate numbers:
I was flying the J3 on 2 two hour legs: 1500ft, 2350rpm, 5.5gph on a C85 Stroker.
My mate was in the Husky: 2000rpm, 17inches, 4.8gph. (MT 210).
After the flight I went home in the Husky (real comfy).
The Husky did 7.5 hours in total, all low level and landed with about one hour fuel remaining.
That’s pretty good motoring!
Oh, was getting a pretty sore posterior after the second two hour leg in the J3! Missed the Husky seats .
