Budget Retracts - Anyone own a Sierra or Comanche 180?
Jay Honeck wrote:
The lancair legacy, with the 310hp and retract will supposedly do 276mph at 8000' The fixed-gear legacy, with 200hp will supposedly do 210 mph at 8000' so, maybe the SR-22 would gain 30mph or so with a retractable... That's pretty significant. I suppose liability concerns are preventing them from considering folding gear? I'd think the concerns about their customers affording insurance would be greater than any concerns about manufacturers liability. Matt
