A 421 can max out at 250kts, but cruise will be more like 220-230kt. The only exception might be a Lancair IV-P and this was posted to the homebuilt newsgroup, so that's a thought. Will have a look. Aerostar does 250kt OK at 25000. TIO 540's. Range is limited by 38-42GPH and gross - empty = 2000 lb. Looking for single that can do the 250kt and max gross - empty = big enough number for fuel plus 250lb.
