In cruise configuration at 75% power, at sea level altitude the Europa
is a 130-135 knot airplane. Doesn't matter whether you have a turbo
engine, a CS prop, Trigear or mono, speed kit or not, light build or
heavy...........that's it! I have a standing wager for $1,000 to anyone
who can show me 200 mph ground speed over a two way course at 75% power
and at altitudes not requiring IFR clearance, I.E. below 18,000 feet.
Any takers?
