At that price I'd be picking up 10 cases right NOW...
I was being quoted $32-$34.00/gal a few weeks ago from several LHS' for 15% Cool Power.

RE: tiger 60 with a 26cc engine?
There are a good handful of planes that could be about right for a 26cc gasser:
Goldberg Tiger 1.20
Great Planes Giant Big Stik
Great Planes Giant U Can Do (maybe)
Great Planes Super Stearman
Great Planes Extra 300S 160 (might not be enough, depends what you want to do)
SIG Rascal 110
SIG Four Star 120
SIG Waco SRE
Hangar 9 Sundowner Formula 1
Hangar 9 (or any brand) 1/4 scale Cub
Hangar 9 Cessna 182
Seagull Spacewalker II
Seagull Sparrowhawk
Of course, having a bunch of choices is pretty wothless if you do not like any of them.
In theory, anything that recommends a 1.20 glow engine is a potential match for a 26cc gasser. In reality it's more complicated due to weight, cowl, and oher issues.

Troy Built Models has a decent price on fuel: with the hazmat shipping charges it totals to $20/gallon for 10% (decent price for anyone who doesn't have a LHS with an already decent price that is).

RE: tiger 60 with a 26cc engine?
Unless they are making bigger ones the Seagull Spacewalker II is a 40 size plane.
Mine flew great with a TT.46
Never mind, I just found the 120 size, add to wish list

That sure is a purty plane. For the record I think a spacewalker makes an excellent second plane and the colors of the seagull model are very easy to see in the air.

My LHS only went up a buck in price on Cool Power 15%. Price went up to $16.99 a gallon. I can live with that!!!

RE: tiger 60 with a 26cc engine?
ours went up about $5 for 10% and 15%
But in the defense of my LHS's I was getting 15% for like $14 or $15 at the beggining of the year.. (Maybe $16??) 10% was abotu a dollar less, but I was on 15% at the time so unsure there..

I sorely miss my departed Seagull Spacewalker .40... but a 1.20?
I'm there!

As I said above, 4-Star 120, and another post that pointed out Tiger 120. These are excellent planes for this size engine.

I do try, honestly 
So what are planes that would suit the OP's engine find (26cc gasser) and his flying style? Just because the gasser won't be right for the Tiger 60 doesn't mean he should give up on the gas idea.
ya gaRCfield keep your newbie comments to yourself, LOL, just kidding.

RE: tiger 60 with a 26cc engine?
Four Star 120 works good for me. I did get this one done and have been flying it this year. I don't have any pic. of it finished. Hummmmm got to do that. I do like the idea of no cowl. it Is easier to work on it.
