As a general rule of thumb. You can expect 1gallon per hour/ 20 hp. So if your C-180 produces 230 hp, you can expect and flight plan for 11.5 gph. Likewise, if you operate a C-185/206 at 300 hp, your looking at 15 gph.
Hope this is helpful. ( 1 gallon/ 20 hp/ hr.)

I hope that helps.

Re: Has anyone tried their luck at the winter sports shows?
It’s a great idea. I did just that at a sports show in Calgary. That was in 1980, I got a job for my efforts.
