A REAL 6 seater

[455 Bravo Uniform]

I’ve always thought stretching an rv-10 for 6 seats would compete nicely against the a36 bonanza with the benefits of being an experimental. I’m sure the idea will get ripped apart here though.

Why would it get ripped apart? It’s experimental. Build whatever you want, sounds cool to me! But I get it, some people like to nay-say for sure.

I just put a T210N under contract. It has a UL of 1600lbs and full fuel is 522lbs. This one trues at 180-184 kts on 18.5gph at 11,000’. Figuring 20gph for 3 hours plus one hr reserve (80 gal) I’ll have a payload of 1,120lbs. Probably knock the TAS down 6-10kts fully loaded. That would give 525mi range with an hour reserve fuel at 175kts. Not too shabby.

For me a 3 hour flight requires 5 hours of fuel. 3 hours for the flight, 45 minutes FAR reserve,30 minutes for the alternate (miss approach and cruise to alternate), and finally 45 minutes for vectors, reroutes, holds, and higher than forecasted headwinds.

and making 5 of our own.

Is that because she keeps saying 'do whatever you want' ?
