Doing a small training flight today I was caught on camera by a workmate. On approach to runway 14 at Zurich.
Gorgeous Mooney @Mooney_Driver
Thanks. @Bobo
quite happy with it. With the powerflow exhaust it came with, we are seeing 150 kts quite regularly if we are in a hurry :) Not bad for an old 180hp C Model.
Very nice MD! What’s your fuel flow at 150 TAS?
Vagabonds are in some ways better Cubs than a Cub… at a fraction of the price.

About 9-10 gph. If I remember right, this was at 25"/2500 RPM, so not even max power which would be at max RPM and WOT.
I can honestly recommend the powerflow exhaust, it really does a great job for this engine. Most C’s don’t get to 150 KTAS even flat out and mine is not anywhere as aerodynamically clean as it could be and still does it.
