Yes, I would do it at 12.5 degrees with low fuel.... That's when you need to know whether to land slow or fast. ;o)

The first is in level flight attitude from full stock Rand/Robinson header tank with 11.5 gal. gravity feed. The result is 22.75 gal per hour. The second was also from full header tank but with the plane in a 12.5 degree nose up attitude. The result was 19.5 gal per hour flow. Both were gravity only. I would expect to get better than this in real life action as there is a vent tube that faces the prop wash that should pressurize the tank. Any comments or thoughts on these base line results?
