"The engine produces speeds of 120 knots, topping out the LSA category in the sleekest models (and it can give more speed in countries that allow in-flight adjustable props). When setting the 912 iS at just under 5,000 rpm I see about 125 mph (about 110 knots) at lower altitudes, at which speed digital instruments calculate 30 miles per gallon."
