nico, i think the loss of take off performance is from the smaller props.
mason i agree with brock this is my second aircraft with the io 720 s,
the first being a excaliber queenair. the engines are long lasting and
smooth. i get 200 kts at altitude (17 to 10) at 60 to 70 % on 36 to 40
gph. at lower ( 10 to 12) with out turbos i get 189 to 190 on 30 to 34
gph. good ship. mason
