I'm running the numbers for a ferry tank to take my Lancair 360 from California (probably Watsonville) to Hawaii.  My back-of-the-envelope calculations suggest that I can do this with a GTOW of 2000 or 2100 pounds and have the range for 2100 nmi with a 30 kt headwind (no reserves).

 

Has anyone made this trip before in a 320 or a 360?  I know a few IVs have done it.

 

Needless to say, the shakedown flights will be the other way -- California to Boston, or something like that.
