Our Stinson 108/2 burns 45 litres and hour at @ $2.14 per litre. That's real 
$100.00 burger.
Can not wait for my KR100 project to be done.....still along way to go, but 
wroth it.

Come on Robert let's be realistic on what it costs to fly our KR's. By my
record keeping fuel is only about 30% of my cost, Hangar is 50% and I only
pay 1/2 of our "T" hangar rent, liability insurance is 13% (it took a big
drop this year), incidentals (oil, filters, elt batteries, tires, brake
pads, etc) make up the remainder. All told over the last 6 years I've
averaged @ $60.00/flying hour. Notice I didn't include depreciation on
original build cost. If I were to include that and the $10 bucks for food it
would really scare that $100 bill.

It's still cheaper than renting and OH such much more fun!!
