: Well, good on gas when compared to a pair of J-69-29 Turbines which someone on
: another list estimated burns about 450 pph each or about 134 gallons per hour
: with Jet-A costing about $2.75 a gallon.
Just for fun, assuming those figures are right, cruising down the
interstate at 65mph, that equates to just under 1/2 mile per gallon.
Factoring in the cost of Jet-A, and adjusting the MPG figure to assume
$2.00/gallon gas, that effectively means it would be getting 0.35 MPG.
So just over 1/3 mile per gallon. That one hour jaunt down the highway
would cost $368.50. ($5.68/mile)
Today's "fun with math" lesson has been brought to you by the
letter C and the all new Dodge Charger - "unleash" yourself from
the burden of continuity and rationality; drive a Charger today!
