warpedskydiver 0 #2 April 27, 2009 I think it needs the following; MERS in the fuselage with pop out electrically operated doors and a nose mounted minigun. A HUD would be an easy upgrade. Maybe some Chaff and Flare dispensers as well. That should clear out the senior citizen air traffic around the DZ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #3 April 27, 2009 Since the piston-powered Velocities already have a great reputation, this new design has promise, certainly much more promise than the early 1990s Jet Cruiser. At first glance the canard looks a bit too small. Just hope they have they have the engineering savvy to enlarge it early in the process instead of numerous bandage fixes on the Jet Cruiser.

n23x 0 #4 April 27, 2009 Looks a lot like Routan's vari-viggen. Wonder who was responsible for the design?
