Hi RayS

I could not agree more with your comment about the mighty Saturn V! What a phenomenal launch system that was! Years ago I saw one F-1 engine bell and the turbo-pump at NASM - the turbo pump alone was the size of a car!

There is a brand new archive for Apollo photos I heard about today. So for any space nut(s) such as I, there are thousands of Apollo photos to look at - go for it space nerds!

And the fuel economy of the Saturn V was some big numbers, 7 inches to the gallon, or 9050 gallons per mile, or 21,300 litres per Km being 2,130,000 litres per 100Km.

Hey, that's not too bad given oil prices at the moment! Those F-1 engines did burn a lot of kero and O2!
