Question for Lionheart

A while back you asked if anyone had an idea for a new aircraft for you. My suggestion would be the kit built turbine powered Legend, fast and good looking, like a small fighter.
 
I was at the EAA Convention a few years ago and I was at the wing tip of a Legend, the man who designed it came up to me and asked, sure looks like you would like one. I said you bet I would but can't afford it. Then he said how about I open her up and you can sit in the cockpit. Need I say more. She fit like a glove, like in the cockpit of a jet fighter. This was the first version with the turbine engine, had a Chev V8 before, and the flight demo was about to start. She climbs like a home sick angel.
 
Im sorry guys,

I have so many already going, it will be ages before I am done with them.

Perhaps Mr. Conrad would like to take on that wild looking bird.

That was the airplane that got me into building FS aircraft.... I wanted one that bad.

I never got around to making one though..........

Hey Brian,

Now's your chance man! You know how to make planes now. Time to put that baby in the sim!

I would like to see a Velocity for FS9. It is such a cool bird!!!
 
The Velocity is one awesome bird as well.

There was a Velocity out back in FS2000 or FS2002 days. I flew the heck out of it, lol... Had a LCD engine gauge just like in the real thing.

Velocity is working on a new Canard. Should be interesting.

One-stop shopping in my backyard... both the turbine Legend and a turbine Velocity are being done by Innovative Wings at CYBW where I used to work.


"THE LEGEND GETS AN UPGRADE!!
The Legend first flew with a Walter M601-D engine and was a phenomenal performer, but in the ongoing quest for ultimate performance, we have now grafted a Garrett TPE331-10 engine to the nose (a mere 1070 Hp).
With a climb rate of 10,000+ feet per minute and a cruise speed of 350 ktas the plane has truly become a LEGEND."

Kinda looks nice with a warbird-ish paint too :icon_lol: -- c'mon... someone's gotta be tempted to do it...
