ok the A-4  last I flew it was from Deois to Banish Riot less then a week ago that was 1600 km.
on that trip I was at 14-19 Km 16 km was probably the best speed...
trolling along at 0.197 to 0.225 km/sec I think 0.22 is a high but fair cruise estimate...
But lets look at a 2500 km trip that covers (or close to )
Deois to rare
Deois to Kansas Fuel mine.
Deois to Caddassum once its rebuilt.

The A-4 Wanderer is a light scout aircraft, capable of carrying one cargo PODS or small vehicle. It is effectively the aerial equivalent of the T-120 Steerhead. It is the cheapest way for new players to get into the air, with rental fare from Rusty's Rentals easily earned with one day's work doing taxi runs.
