This is a fact..my plane was intented to take people on sightseeing and land on frozen lakes etc.

But I got mixed up with lbs and kg when doing the thrust calculation with propeller and engine power. I have a new top speed at 289 km/h (180 mph ).
262 km/h ( 163 mph ) for the 75% power. Even at the economy cruise it will go 200 km/h ( 125 mph ). Well thanks for bringing this up…I might have forgotten the whole project, but now it started to look good again.

:rolleyes:

It also means that it would take 37,5 hours to beat Dick Rutan record from 1979 ( Anghorage Alaska to Turks Island ) using 419 kilos of fuel…leaving just 450 also for the aeroplane to keep it under 1000 kg with 2 pilots ( I may have to modify it a bit …when knowing how tight it goes ).
