| Brian A. Kruh Sandpoint, ID | The Aero Commander 680E has Lycoming GSO-480-B1B Supercharged 340Hp throttle body injected, Geared engines.
The 680E is capable of not only flying, but can take off on one engine with little problem within most weight configurations. Single engine preformance is suprisingly good compared to many other twins of equal gross weight. Below 10,000 ft. the 680E curises at 180+ mph with little problem. Above 10,000 ft. it does a clean 200 mph. When I first began flying the 680E I had an opportunity to fly with Jim Metzger of the Twin Commander Flight Group. A little tid-bit he left with me was "In a Twin Commander you can go down, or you can slow down, but you can not do both". Three years later his advice stil stands. It is a wonderful aircraft, but it truely is a pilots plane. Do not allow yourself to get behind the plane. You wont catch up! 01/31/2007 @ 19:36 [ref: 15368] |
