[mooneyexecutive]

He is talking about GROUND speed....Tail wind PLUS True Air speed = FAST MOONEY!

I believe the preview is three months old.

@the934x4

We can't release stories to the web until after their broadcast... part of the contract but its up now

The TBM is a turboprop. The Acclaim's claim to fame is for production piston single engine speed.

Umm. . . not that I'm doubting, but how? So far past Velocity never Exceed?

The Bat mobile? I'm embarrassed to have heard that. Nice airplane however...If you like speed, try a Lancair... Cheers

on his record flight that would be 661.164 kph with a good tail wind

@FlightlineHDTV pretty neat!

[Coderoid]

Wow, lovely planes, these Mooneys!

Just one thing - maybe my math isn't too good, but does the Type S do over 600Kph? :O 357KTAS x 1.85200 = 661.164Kph, by Jove!
