Having just done a cross country of 2000 miles in N357V with roughly 600 mile legs, I think it is well suited for the trip with tailwinds but I'd want to study the fuel options closely before making a decision on stops and possible ferry tanks. This is a great time of the year to go across eastbound but it could be time consuming. Many of the pro's already have the gear, charts, flight plans and contacts so that would be my choice unless you want the experience and have the time. If you need another reference for the job I can provide one more good name. Contact me offline if you wish. Paul Miller Calgary YoSamuel@aol.com wrote: > We need to get a Legacy to Germany.
