Re: Max bomb loads to distances for BC 4 engine bombers

200+trackmiles/0,94 gallons. Lost me a bit there. I assume not 200mpg but 200 gals + 0.94 gals per track miles?

Fuel weight is 6lbs/gal; correct?

I am thinking that the top load to Berlin was ca. 4.5 tonnes which was 500+ mi. direct so probably at least 6-700 according to flight plan and weather?
