Anyone else building a wood airplane?

Mine has an O-235-L2C and no wing tanks. It burns about 5.5 GPH, leaving me with about 90 mins of endurance with legal VFR reserves. I'm ready to get out and stretch by then, anyway, especially if it's midday and I'm getting bounced around. Needs a pilot upgrade more than anything else. :biggrin:
Interesting. Dave Hertner told me I really needed to keep the engine weight at or under 200#, I’d have thought an O-235 would be too heavy. Then again there are several running Rotecs, so maybe it’s not as big a deal as that.
