Tuttle

Bought an 87.   New engine with inner gear doors.   My third J.      At 8000 feet it trues at 172 knots at 11-12 gal/hr.   Flew it home from Seattle to Detroit in 11 hours.  Best J built.   160 gross increase as we text.   Only J with 252 gear and 140 kt gear speed.   Hope I live long enough to wear it out.   Pics of panel showing 172 at level flight available.   Little tailwind on my way home pushes 200 kts.  I love this pristine airplane....put in a stupid parachute and they should"fly" off the shelf.
