EA-100 S-LSA Specifications and Performance
Be aware
of the competitors numbers.
The numbers for the EA-100 are accurate, not inflated by using minimums or
maximums to promote non-real
world numbers. Traps others use like having very
little fuel capacity to up the total useful load or showing empty weights that
are for airplanes that are not ‘flight ready’ or showing ridiculously low fuel
flows to promote long range. Unfortunately this is a practice widely used by
others in a feeble attempt to make their products better than they really are!
Our performance numbers and specifications are real, numbers you can plan on.
