[Midnitemo]

with that kind of performance it's going to be spending more time on the ground waiting for a good weather window than flying.....I see the point if you live on a small secluded island....what's its mauw/endurance /vne?.....I've seen low powered aircraft take off on the runway and climb virtually on the spot into a brisk headwind and then have to land elsewhere because they had insufficient power to make an approach(40 hp early piper cub)
