Dave,
Second day on my flight home from Al (two people onboard (240 + 200 lbs)) I kept engine RPM at about 5150-5250 all the way:
Distance Flown - 661 SM
Flight Time - 6.8 hours
Average ground speed - 97 MPH
.

Did you refuel or was this on a single stretch? And would you say with hindsight now this fuel consumption is typical for the m24 with the 915 engine?

Fuel tank holds 22 gallons. 915iS burns 5-7 gallons an hour while cruising depend on airspeed and weight. So one gets is 3-4 hour in the air on one tank of gas.

For the orientating buyer what do you like and what could be better? How would you compare it f.e. against the Cavalon (asking for a friend ;) ?

I have never been in Cavalon, so can not compare. I red a lot about Cavalon and M-24 and with no doubts decided to buy M-24.
I like almost everything about M-24, except the seat shape. In a long flight (7-8 hours in a row a day) it becomes uncomfortable for my behind, while on 2-3 hours a day flight discomfort is not noticable.
I'm going to experiment with some kind of cushion-pillow for back and bottom. Tell your friend M-24 is very close to be the ideal side-by-side 2-seater enclosed gyro. ;)

I think it’s the prettiest of the side by sides, and it’s “Magni Robust” 👍
my personal experience is that it just a bit cramped if your pax is not petite, enjoy your new machine.
