Bob and I are flying back to Connecticut, IFR in his Cessna 182, after a fabulous experience with my first visit to Oshkosh. We depart with full tanks.
As the flight progresses, trouble looms. Our LORAN groundspeed (yep!) was low. I spin my whiz wheel (yep!) as the fuel needles creep ever lower. I had calculated our fuel consumption to OSH as 13.1 gph. At our present groundspeed, the LORAN, whiz wheel and I figure we will need gas about an hour short of destination.
