It certainly isn't as much as we might like but since the Rotax burns
about half as much fuel per hour as the O200 it's still more useful load
than the Cessna. We also aren't using this plane for primary training
where cross country and visiting other airports is required which ups
both ones flight duration and hourly fuel burn. Instead we are just
splashing around in local waterways (Our airport is located on an island
so water is quite close.)
