While 1-2 quarts may be a true "minimum" for oil that would be a terrible idea to try to fly. I would imagine that in the initial climb with 1.5 quarts in the engine your temps would go redline and you would smoke the engine within a few minutes after departure.
Im sticking with min of 6 to takeoff and go flying in a preflight.
