Yes, but the problem with that is thats over the
weight limit. The c-1b is up *to* 2200lbs or there about, I think it's
actually 750kg - 1000kg's. (1653lb - 2204lbs) The next size up the
c-1c is 1000kg - 1750kg (2204lbs - 3858lbs) and there is some serious
competition there... The IV's would have to play in that later category I
believe.
Info here.

I suspect it would take
a 4 cyl (due to fuel
burn), obviously, extra fuel that can fit within the TO
weight limit but who
knows...
A IVP with 140 gals should be able to top that
easily (that's about 3340lbs with pilot)
...but while I'm there,
Anybody have fuel flow numbers for a IVP at 250
knots/fl240 ?
My crude calculations say it should be less than
15GPH LOP
