[Psyche777able]

Home!!!!

[peterawsome]

whats the maximum altitude? and top speed (in kt's)?

[patmichl]

@peterawsome 41,000 ft and 370 kts but at this time the eclipse is restricted to 35,000 ft because of carbon buildup in the engines.

@youngestpilotinGa lol..

[drin2014]

What's the approach speed on this fine aircraft?

[jaime690]

between 85 and 90 keas (equivalent air speed)

[kgboy72]

No reverse? That sucks...

[Saberpride73]

yea but landing at 85 to 90kts you really dont need reversers.

[davisbrettvain]

@kgboy72 to save money in jet fuel, they don't use them when they don't have to.

If you just bought a really expensive jet, wouldn't you want to save money as much as possible?

[kgboy72]

@davisbrettvain nope, I`d roar as long as I want... to let everybody know I got the new jet. Can`t afford one, don`t fly one :P

[desiang1]

@kgboy72 why would u want reverse if it's already that slow -.-...

[mtanz0]

yeh that landing was sweet.

[ConnorAlves]
