It will be IFR capable with GPS moving map. Cruise should be approximately 150 Kts and a 40 gallon fuel tank has been installed making it an excellent Xcountry aircraft. Plans are to show it at various airshows around the country so that aviation buffs can see what Rutan's first design looks like and learn about true safety by design.
