Lancair IVP
I got to go for a ride in this Lancair IVP a few years ago. The pilot of another IVP took this photo. You can
see me taking a picture of him. Moments later, we peeled off in a descending left turn. This particular airplane
has a souped up Continental TSIO-550 engine that made about 425 HP - up from the stock 350 HP. Twin-turbo,
dual intercoolers, pressurized cabin. Very fast; cruises 300+ MPH at 20,000 feet or so. It's also not an airplane
to be toyed with, due to the high wing loading. In the interest of privacy for the current owner, I blotted out the N number.
