While it took longer than plan, intercontinental jet’s team did a very nice job on everything. I wondered if you were here in Tulsa.......saw a P180 burning holes around the patch yesterday.....

Very nice traveling plane. Quiet and smooth. That’s honestly pretty impressive. Remind me the SHP vs your Solitaire? Obviously it’s running more fuel so more power and more Wang is a big help. Can it take off no flaps or are they must-have like MuToo?

Very nice traveling plane. Quiet and smooth. Looks great Anthony! Very efficient, at least in cruise: 580 lbs/hr / 377 ktas = 1.54 lbs/nm Comparing to the Solitaire: 480 lbs/hr / 290 ktas = 1.66 lbs/nm Pretty sweet!

The P180 climbs just as well, if not better than the B350. Not from personal experience, but from working them on a radar scope.
