It's nothing more than a hunch, but I think this airplane is going to be much more of a pig (I don't mean that in a bad way!) than a Havoc or F-16, so you may find yourself using a much higher throttle setting with this one. I could be way off though, but I wouldn't do anything drastic to reduce the tank capacity anytime soon for sure.
