This weekend I was right seat in a Jet A - powered fixed wing making only 126 knots at 48 gph. Guess what it was...
Caravan on floats or turbine beaver on floats?

Caravans are faster than that, even on floats, aren't they? I was going to guess (given Alaskaflyer's location) a turbine Beaver or Otter?

Close...
I guess technically it is "lbs fuel per hour" but the fuel flow on board gave it as gph.
