DISCUSSION

The Liberty XL2 is the Next Generation training and touring aircraft. It has incredible advantages (links to manufacturer's web site) over other aircraft in its class. Highlights:

• The fullly FADEC (Full Digital Authority Digital Engine Control) controlled TCM IOF-240B fuel-injected engine is the most advanced aircraft engine available for certified aircraft. (Yes, finally, aircraft engines are computer-controlled, like cars have been for a quarter-century.)

• The fuselage is made from the same Toray composites used on the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Although it weighs just 70 lbs., the carbon fuselage is stronger than a comparable aluminum fuselage. This light weight contributes to the XL2's incredible energy efficiency.

• The XL2 cruises at 120 knots (138 mph) on just 6.5 gph. If you slow to 113 knots (130 mph), you'll get a whopping 23.6 statute miles per gallon; 105 knots yields a whopping 25.7 mpg...no other certified airplane comes close to the efficiency of the Liberty XL2!

• The wings are removable in only 10 minutes.

• Unlike Light Sport Aircraft, the Liberty XL2 was designed from the beginning to be both an excellent touring aircraft and an excellent trainer, for both VFR and IFR pilots and student pilots.
