Great presentation. Thx Pilot Mike. What's interesting to me is the Velocity XL Take-off of 1400 and Landing of 1500 are both so much shorter than the others it's stunning.
The sling 4 is not light sport and total cost will run you over 300,000. The sling 2 is light sport and to quick build it will cost about 180,000 with garmin avionics.
#3 should be #2? Did you fly it, Mike? Can you see the runway over the hood when you are landing? Do you prefer an IFR landing? It's a defective design and will never be certified. Too dangerous to fly should be avoided at all costs.
Plane #2 - Lancia Evolultion?? Try Lancair. Top speed of Pipistrel Panthera is incorrect. VNE means Never Exceed Speed, not top speed. Get it right, very poor fact checking.
There’s nothing sexy about these machines. You make a mistake and the damn thing will kill you. Thanks for the content. They look slick and expensive 👍🏻
Would have been nice to have international standard units for all values for everyone outside of the US

VNe on the panthera is over 200KN
VCruise is 195KN
the Diamond DA-40 looks better than the DA-50
Edit: Where's the Cirrus SR?
The sling 4 is obsolete due to the new Sling TSI and Sling High Wing, both are much nicer than the Sling 4.
What is mechanics. Surface adhesion. You increase the number of tooth of surfaces at one end of the other to get twice mechanical advantage.

Top speed is for Panthera is 200 kn. Your stats are incorrect!
Hey, whatever happened to that racing league that was built around this plane?
Can you do a video on the twin engine Velocity? Can you get turbine engines on their single or twin?
Have you considered the RDD LX7,,,coast to coast non stop range
first of all good day. How much is the delivery price of the planes? please write. thanks.
Check out the new Risen Superveloce
The top speed for the Panthera is incorrect
just wanted to comment on that! cruise speed at 75% is 198 and never exceed 220;-). the nr 1 in my opinion...
How about a pressurized Cirrus
I'd love for a pressurized turbine engined Diamond😉
They'll probably never make a turbine. I would like a pressurized twin, though.
The DA50 was supposed to have a turbine option originally but that fell apart. The whole project turned into a disaster.
750 nm

Velocity XL is ugly as sin.
Qual o problema de não usar um motor turbina e colocar esse pássaro lindo para voa mais rapido e mais alto?
