Re: New 4 Seat Piston Twin

200hp with 1.1 tone all up weight seems reasonable. Certainly 100hp single engine ROC of 350 ft/min doesn't sound unrealistic. I do wonder if 1.1 tones is little ambitious for a twin though when the DA42 is 1.7t. If comparative ratios with the DA42 are anything to go by then it can probably be a little heavier than 1.1t and still have acceptable perfornce.
